When students understand the impact of loss, they can better support grieving peers. Foster compassionate school environments where every student feels seen and supported. This #GriefAwarenessDay, letβs equip students with the tools to make a difference. sharemylesson.com/partner/coβ¦

"Itβs not saving money. Itβs just basically eviscerating the services."

Letβs make her story!!! I'm with her @VP
The @aftunion Exec. Council just voted to endorse @KamalaHarris for president, subject to ratification by delegates to the 2024 AFT convention. Harris is fighting to restore Roe, fighting for families,for student debt relief and is a powerful advocate for workers.

We are here at our convention in Houston and our members are so grateful to @JoeBiden. He's always stood with us and our members know that. The gratitude and love for him here is incredible. Thank you, Mr. President.Β Β aft.org/thank-you-president-β¦

The 8th circuit just blocked @POTUS @VP life changing SAVE plan. This creates more chaos in a system riddled with problems. Loan payments for teachers, nurses & firefighters could skyrocket + set them back from qualifying for PSLF. forbes.com/sites/adamminsky/β¦
Thank you @rweingarten and @AFTunion
This tentative agreement has what teachers and student need, #RealSolutions @DFT231 @aftmichigan

Trump's rambling, rageful speech is a reminder that he's unfit for the White House. A President must honor the rule of law not undermine it. He rants against a legal system he has often navigated well. He is a convicted felon & his lies won't change that. apnews.com/article/trump-202β¦
