Today I was asked what's my goal for public education in my city. The answer: Educational liberation for each and every Black and brown student! An environment that allows students to thrive, not just survive! #PublicSchoolAdvocate #AbolitionistTeacher

What does this "commitment" *actually* mean? Cutting Social Workers at Excel Academy shows a pretty weak commitment.

1/ I began as a new Teacher to DCPS in 2012. Two years later, I was the Building Rep. at my school. I began showing up to Rep. Assembly meetings on the regular, attending COPE meetings, and sharing my ideas with President Davis.

Congratulations. You've helped 125 families get free child care. It should be fully funded and a right to all families. Make one bold step, Mayor Bowser... This would be one.
Replying to @MayorBowser
We proposed $2.5 Million to ensure the “Keeping Childcare Affordable” tax credit is permanent, putting more money back into the pockets of families.

I’m so proud of #Ward8’s student leaders from @AnacostiaHigh, where their school is slated for a $1.2M cut next year, for speaking out and saying #FundOrSchools #FundOurFuture

Standing outside @cmdgrosso office. We get he was in a hearing, but he could’ve stepped out for a few in solidarity. Saw him exit the building around 6:30 pm. Said he is fighting for funding. But the REAL question is he fighting equally hard for ACCOUNTABILITY for those funds? 🤔

.@AFTunion President @rweingarten says cuts in #Ward7 and #Ward8 are unacceptable and a betrayal of our families in need. “The schools with the most need should get the most money!” #FundOurFuture #FundOurSchools
