Hey school leaders and administrators!!! I'm super pumped to be sharing more about the amazing Welcoming Schools program at their booth on Friday and Saturday this week in Seattle! Will we see you there?! A wonderful chance to ask questions about engaging with the Welcoming Schools resources, their seal of excellence program, and industry-leading PD for your school staff members. Stop by and say hi!

We are so excited to attend the National Association of Elementary School Principals and National Association of Secondary School Principals (NASSP) United conference this week! Come find us Thursday through Saturday in the exhibit hall! source

Parents, I am with you. 🫂 Hold them closer, love them harder, let yourself be held too, let yourself be loved more. Our children are sacred, may they be protected always and may our community support us in our efforts to keep them safe and growing healthy and free. 🩵

This may seem like a very “well duh” post but i do think it’s important to be clear that when trump claims he intends to “deport” U.S. citizens that that is definitionally not deportation. Deportation specifically refers to the civil process of removal a foreign noncitizen to the country where they hold citizenship. Deportation is also, in most cases, a legal punishment in itself and will not result in the deportee being jailed upon arrival to their country of citizenship. Removing US citizens from the US and placing them in jails in countries that they have no citizenship claim to is commonly referred to as “disappearing,” “kidnapping,” or “trafficking” and discussions around trump’s desire to remove US citizens from the country should refer to it as such

for a while now i’ve been learning that some people kind of choose to hate themselves like you can give them tools and resources and advice and they’ll even follow some of it and go “i still hate myself” and i feel strongly at that point they’re kind of choosing to stay in that mindset because it’s comfortable and familiar or something but some people are truly [gotye voice] addicted to a certain kind of sadness and hooked on feeling low
