We held our second annual “Yes I Can” Awards Ceremony. 28 students and 6 staff members, all celebrated for their scholarship, character, work ethic, and leadership.
An inspirational night where we all can and should be reminded of the beautiful talents in each of us #besomebody

We live in a world where CEOs get million-dollar bonuses for reaching their goals (pleasing their shareholders) while teachers ask for donations on DonorsChoose and ClearTheList. How did we get here? 🫤

Can the people in the back hear this?

We believe that literacy is the foundation for all learning. This year, we continue our efforts to ensure every student reads at or above grade level. Together, let’s write the book on literacy.

Read to your newborn. 📚
With hearing developing during the final months of gestation, it’s never too early to begin reading to your baby. And this mom is giving us an absolute master class in how to do it right.
Note first that she’s reading face-to-face. At this age (10 weeks), there is literally nothing more thrilling - or instructional - to your newborn than your face. Check out how intently focused baby is on mom’s voice and facial expressions.
Mom reads with expression and emotion, alternating between glances at the text and direct eye contact with her adoring audience of one.
And there is so much going on in that developing brain. Did you know that during the earliest years of life babies form new neural connections at an estimated 1 million per SECOND?
With these types of rich daily interactions, mom is setting her baby up for a lifetime of success.
Kudos to KelseyPaumer (IG) on this fantastic and educational 🎥 clip.

There is a huge difference between being a "reluctant reader" and having dyslexia. #dyslexia

Districts must be willing to engage in the messy work and commit to believing that better is possible.
This is a story of radical responsibility and powerful partnership! #literacyandjusticeforall @CoxCampus
