Here’s an end-of-the-school-year activity that you can find, download, and print at my website along with about 200 others. I hope it leads to some productive reflection and planning. https://t.co/elSYH2RkBR

A half million people in Oregon evacuate as wildfires rage. Over 3 million acres in California burned. The western sky is red. An 800-mile derecho destroyed towns in Iowa. The Arctic topped 100 degrees. The Green New Deal has been called "expensive." Compared to what?

Let’s all stop calling them “wildfires” out West. They are CLIMATE FIRES. It’s a climate EMERGENCY.

No student should be forced to go through years of school using their “Starbucks Name” just because their teachers can’t get their real name right.

I feel that I must personally respond to the multiple incidents of #LGBTQ harassment and specifically transphobia directed at me. Your actions perpetuate a spirit of intolerance and discrimination against LGBTQ individuals and specifically transgender individuals.

If you have time, this will be well worth it!
Super pumped about this event tomorrow. Navigating race convos in schools created my passion for counseling. Race and bias incidents in your school are more prevalent now than ever before. Hear how counselors can prepare and respond to a major racial incident in their school.

Oh Betsy, Dear Betsy! Once again, you show how unfit you are to lead #PublicEducation. You’ve got our teachers mixed up with someone else! Please #SitDownBetsy! The real educators got this!

We all need to continue to be in solidarity with Dr. @paulharris917, a spectacular leader and scholar in counseling and counselor education. His publications are consistently on my reference lists and many other published journal articles. https://t.co/E4AWSKcP3s

This was such a special day. Thank you @ASCAtweets for providing me the opportunity to interview my daddy and to share his words with our profession. His words have kept me and guided me all my life! @GaryBestParker1

Hey y'all! Want kids to be able to get back to school in the fall? Want to go see movies in a theater again? Visit a library? A bookstore? Go out to eat? WEAR A MASK! If 80% of Americans would just wear a mask, COVID-19 infections would plummet! Who's with me? 😷 #KidlitForMasks
