Hi DC followers, my sweet cat Charlie slipped out my fire escape door early this morning at my apartment in Petworth/16th St. Heights, on Georgia Ave near Webster. Please DM me if you find her or possibly see her anywhere! She is very shy and timid.
Uhhhh, I literally just saw @/imaniperry’s article this morning about how she’s been sounding the alarm on Twitter extremism and now her account is hacked by a crypto firm, which M^sk was peddling? Bro this is way more terrifying than fake verifications
The #studentLoanForgiveness application is obnoxiously easy. Took me 30 seconds to fill out. It's obnoxious because it should just be automatic, but apparently, it is not. Here's the link, you can get it done in less than 1 minute. studentaid.gov/debt-relief/ap…

Middle School Math Club is off to a great start this year! I mean just look at this enthusiasm 👊🏻🤓💃🏼 #McLeanSchool
Even math specialists love walking around every corner to find students reading aloud to each other 🤓 #McLeanSchool
Inaccurate representations of mathematical histories is one reason why Black students don’t see themselves doing #math nor believe in their own math abilities/gifts. A thread ..... 1/
Appreciative that Liz Kleinrock (@teachntransform) could join us today at #mcleanschool to work with our faculty to continue our growth to be antibias and antiracist educators based on our shared summer read - Start Here, Start Now.
There is almost always a reason behind behaviors. We must help students manage their feelings and emotions instead of only treating the manifestion of these things. 🙌 📷 Upbringing.co
