Our headquarters building in Washington, D.C., will be named after Mary W. Jackson, the first African-American female engineer at NASA. She started in @NASAaero research and later moved into the personnel field, working to ensure equal opportunity in hiring and promotion.

“Students should read and/or be read to for a minimum of 60 minutes daily, across the curriculum, at every grade level. And they should write for at least 40 minutes.” –@ASCD author Mike Schmoker "Focusing on the Essentials" https://t.co/CzRtoufJJw #edchat

You can in fact suppress problems, we can use these fairly harsh techniques to get a child to behave the way we want. But the problem is still there and it's still that underlying sense of insecurity, of being scared and it grows in the way stress cycles do grow. #SelfReg

Happy #IndigenousPeoplesDay!Today we honour & celebrate the contributions, histories, perspectives & lived experiences of First Nations, Inuit & Métis Peoples. I hope the youth, community & colleagues I am honoured to serve & learn from have a beautiful day w/ family & friends.

What is important is not so much how long you live as whether you live a meaningful life. This doesn’t mean accumulating money and fame, but being of service to your fellow human beings. It means helping others if you can, but even if you can’t do that, at least not harming them.

On National Indigenous Peoples Day, we recognize, celebrate and honour the rich heritage, culture, contributions and diversity of First Nation, Inuit and Métis communities across Canada.

Do Ontario schools need black history to be a part of the curriculum?! Yes indeed! Schools need this. And it must be more than celebrating Black History Month. Send the Ministry of Education a message to take action. PLS SIGN PETITION https://t.co/Eg6Ng75fdu #onted #ONpoli

Today marks the beginning of Pride Month, a celebration of 2SLGBTQ+ people & the history of Pride. Pride is another opportunity for educators to share messages of hope and affirm all diverse gender identities & sexualities. Find resources to help you at: https://t.co/bGLqrRcgNC

Throughout #PrideMonth in June, the Pride flag will fly proudly at Peel schools and worksites in recognition and celebration of the many achievements and contributions of 2SLGBTQ+ communities. Together, let’s help create spaces that are safe, inclusive and welcoming for all.

June is National Indigenous History Month. In celebration, we asked Elder Hazel to tell the 7 Grandfather Teachings that form an Indigenous way of life, and we are sharing them in 7 videos, one each Thursday starting May 28. --- Brought to you by the @SaskTeachersFed

Liftoff!

It’s not white vs black, it’s everybody vs racists
