Inspiring words from Jess DeCarolis regarding hope: https://t.co/PDgQFQpxcQ Inspiring words shared at the Rowland Foundation Conference last week. Thanks, Jess, for your bravery, kindness, and hope

Words worth reading from Secretary Cardona, an educator himself:

Also: "Let's not just talk about honoring educators, let's make sure they are treated with the respect & dignity they deserve...a livable wage, ongoing professional learning & development, supportive working conditions & a work environment where their voices are welcome"

Secretary Cardona: "Especially now during a pandemic, engaging all parents' voices in this process of recovery and addressing disparities is not only important, it's necessary. All parents' voices must be heard."

Again, Secretary Cardona; "We can't lose this moment—this chance for a reset in education—by going back to the same pre-pandemic strategies that did not address inequities"

Thank you, Secretary Cardona, for your leadership. Some highlights from a recent speech: "All kids must be seen, all kids must be connected, and all kids must hear their names in school every day. "

We're proud to continue our summer internship for advanced grad students in educational measurement. Come work with top professionals to address current technical, policy, and practical challenges. @AndrewDeanHo @RbnLake @DerekCBriggs @NCME38 @AERA_Div_D

(1/3) @GSP_Mark, our associate director, and Don Weafer, a senior associate here at GSP, spoke with @PressHerald about the @newenglandssc, diversifying the educator workforce, and more.

And Justin Wells argues that worthwhile student profiles must be 1) co-designed with the community; 2) start with instructional practice rather than assessment measurement; and 3) honestly consider the implications of the promise to students.

Words of wisdom from Tony Monfiletto: "graduate profiles would be a lot more meaningful if they were promises to young people rather than projections by adults...What if we...said that graduate profiles were promises from adults to students?”

GSP is hiring for a new associate director! You can find all needed information here: https://t.co/ygr9Ab4UHP Please help us get the word out regarding this exciting opportunity to join a group of unparalleled educators looking to change the world of learning

Very sad to share that my colleague & close friend Mark Kostin is retiring from GSP in June. Mark has inspired me & educators across the county. His insight and total dedication to supporting all children to learn well has been an inspiration for our many years in collaboration.

Jesse Pratt, Winston Salem deputy superintendent: “When we saw the disproportion of suspensions between our students, we knew that that had to be addressed.” And they reached out to Engaging Schools to help—honored to be on the board for this org.

Congrats to Principal Mary Nadeau and her colleagues at Nokomis HS here in ME. Great case study by CERPE outlining ten years of work. Students, families and educators at Nokomis are lucky to be working together for the success of everyone.

I’m excited to share that GSP is hiring! Please take a look at our job posting announcement and think about joining us as a colleague in this incredibly important work. I look forward to hearing from you.

Thanks Barr Foundation for this post and recognition of this need. We are excited to have published a report on diversifying the educator work force and look forward to continued collaboration with LEAs and SEAs getting involved in this crucial work.
