Hearing from leaders about the why, how, and what of district change from learning environments like @IssaquahSchools @PurduePolyHS, @dvschools, and @concordnation #Aurora24

Learning about how a community in New Mexico collectively responded to young people’s wellbeing through mentorship, internships, and a sense of community from Tony Monfiletto and Momeka Stevens. #Aurora24

We are having fun, rich and engaging talks around work- based and real- work learning. Love being in conversations and community with so many who are interested in a national framework. #Aurora24

Starting the day off with another strong keynote in conversation with students 👏🏾👏🏾 Thanks @BroussardRhonda for challenging us to ask One Good Question.

States looking to make student centered policies in education should look at Indiana. Indiana state support allows places like @CSC_EH and @PurduePolyHS and their leaders to thrive. “Make policies to run exceptional schools for campus leaders.” - @scottbessindy #Aurora24

Hearing from Joy Nolan, @akrebecca, and @LearningZest about the power of school study tours. 💎s so far ⁃Attend to the human needs ⁃Allow time for mental processing ⁃Don’t look for perfection ⁃Make the trip a feedback opportunity for the campus and the visitors

Listen in on a pod I loved doing featuring great school leaders.

Huge thanks to @CajonValleyUSD for sharing how they make @WorldOfWorkNet a reality for young people of all ages.

Nice work CAL- MSCS team to integrating deeper learning, computer science, math and science for their students. 👏🏾👏🏾 Appreciated this statement “The students know I’m willing to learn alongside them and make mistakes as I try new things.” Kevin Bice, Orange Vista Teacher

“Preparing students for the future isn’t about the end goal, but about living in the process.” -@rmcaruthers, @Getting_Smart #NewPathways

This! Viewing coalition from various lenses and acknowledging the healing that has to occur before work can be started 💜

In an effort to be fully present, I paused on posting @WeAreEdLoC but I’m sharing 💎s and 🔥 During the session ‘Culturally Affirming AI: Feeding the algorithm a steady diet of soul food’ “The revolution maybe not be televised but it will be AI empowered.” Jeff Livingston

Margarita Florez Vasconcelos & Dayna Cobarrubias highlight how the lack of Latin X representation in media content is harmful and impacts coalition building even though they consume media at staggering rates. Reminds me of the power of storytelling and how it’s being told.

Micia Mosely from @BlackTeacherPro kicked off the second day of @WeAreEdLoC convening by bringing joy and laughter to the space👏🏾💜 Loved the depiction of applying to EdLoc😂

I’m beyond grateful and delighted to be in community with other education leaders thanks to the @WeAreEdLoC convening in Baltimore. They are firing at all cylinders. ✔️ student drum line ✔️ great and diverse food ✔️ rich conversation led by @CharlesMBlow ✔️ ♠️tournament
