The MTSS process isn’t about moving Ss through tiers to get them into SPED. Nor is it about checking the boxes to “play the game”. It’s actually just matching student needs to instruction through the systematic use of assessment data. This can manifest itself in multiple ways.

We could explain until our last breath that CRT is not taught in K-12, but the actual definition of CRT doesn’t matter anymore in these debates. Culture warriors are labeling any discussion of race, racism or discrimination as CRT to try to make it toxic. usatoday.com/in-depth/news/p…

The prioritization of the wealthy and affluent for vaccinations is morally reprehensible in its own right, but the exchange of hard-to-get vaccines for political contributions may in fact be criminal. I've asked the @TheJusticeDept investigate.

“Kids in the future need to learn to be engineers and to code!”
Yeah, but they also need to learn how to be citizens in a republic and understand the basic tenets of democracy.

I know it’d be difficult, but I wish school districts offered support for students and educators as we prepare for conversations tomorrow. And the next day. And the day after that. Instead of trying to treat it like business as usual. Nothing normal about this.
Mrs. Merritt, M. Ed retweeted
Educators: this is our moment.
We’re going to make sure that every child, every school, and every educator has what they need to thrive regardless of where they live or where they come from.
