Such an honor to get some small group instruction from our teacher commissioner, @mcricker today. The Governor’s Education Policy Bill has so much promise for students in Minnesota. Thank you for a seat at the table. #MNTOY #EDMN – at Minnesota, USA

Oak-Land Middle School 6th grader Katie Peterson was honored for saving her teacher's life. The 11-year-old was given an award by @WCSO_Minnesota for helping her teaching suffering a heart attack. Today, he was able to say thank you once again. youtu.be/BXuSIXjxtGo #PonyPride

So proud of 11 yr. old Naomi Waller speak so eloquently in DC. She quotes T. Morrison “if there’s a book you want to read but it hasn’t been written, then write it”. Something tells me a lot of “book writing” is coming! #MarchForOurLives #ElemStudentsCanChangeTheWorld
