Teaching is an act of faith and hope. We plant our seeds and we water our gardens, but what grows there is often beyond our control.

Preparations are underway for our July New Teacher Academy! 🍎📚

While our training materials are fully funded, budget limitations mean we need help with welcoming decor, prizes, or treats.

If you would like to help us shower our incoming educators with community love, we would appreciate your help clearing the last few items on our wishlist!

We know that educators who relied on the The World Factbook as a reference for teaching geography are reeling at the news that it has been taken offline.

We've put together a collection of other free, online resources that can help fill that gap, along with our best regional geography lessons (which are also free!)

Take a look and please share this with your educator friends.

Let's be crystal clear here.

The same people that are forcing books out of classrooms because teachers can't be trusted to decide what books their students have access, are the EXACT same people that support and trust teachers enough to arm them with deadly weapons in the classroom.

Let the insanity of this sink in.

Earlier this week, I posted about Rep Nate Shannon introducing HB 4020, which would repeal all the retention language out of Michigan's 3rd Grade Reading Law. That bill is now in committee.

Now, Senator Dayna Polehanki has introduced SB 12 (2023), and it is the exact same legislation as HB 4020.

With both chambers now having identical bills in committee, this appears to be fast tracking!

Today, MI State Representative Nate Shannon introduced HB 4020(2023) which is an amendment to #Michigan Public Act 308 (2016), known as the 3rd Grade #Reading Law.
HB 4020 strikes the retention language out of Act, but leaves the rest intact.
This is a good start, but if we need to do more by updating the language regarding interventions to include science of reading!
