This morning we confirmed a student panel for #CTRH2025 from an incredible Indigenous-led organization that we'll be able to announce next week. Indigenous perspectives have been missing from CTRH, and we're eager to connect our audience of educators to their mission.

Nawal's scholarship and savvy are making me think differently and better about how NYS schools might design and bring their Portraits of Graduates to life in our schools. I've learned much through my partnership with pilot schools this year. More to come. Let's follow Nawal's lead, friends.

Here’s a thread of books I’ve read in 2025 that I’ll keep adding to, in case there are fellow family saga lovers out there to share and recommend. First up, fun and easy bc that’s what I needed. Emily Henry’s Happy Place.

I’m so proud of the work I do alongside LA + OC educators, school leaders and families. TY to the Cotsen Foundation for ongoing partnership and dedication to the art of teaching, especially in family engagement. Launched another series of PL sessions before moving into labsites next.

Grateful to work at beautiful places doing impactful things, one of the first being the Star-Ledger newspaper, where I was a journalist and met my husband. I’ll never forget reporting in Iran (for which I won a NJ Press Award). Gathered w former colleagues to mark the end of the print edition. 🗞️📰❤️

‼️ And if you haven't yet read Nawal's book, Nourishing Caregiver Collaborations, it is a must read: "We cannot profess to value learning for every human if we do not value the site of every human's initial and most enduring learning—family."

I’m loving @nqcliteracy.bsky.social’s oral storytelling unit progression 😃 To encourage students’ writing authenticity, we must first immerse them in oral storytelling & communities questioning—inquiring & interviewing— Be empathetic…THEN WRITE! #NourishingCaregiverCollaboration
