What’s the best news today? ✨ This is pretty good... “As I serve my community, I wake up every day knowing that I’m going to serve my students, my future generations as I represent Santo Domingo Pueblo,” she said. “I wake up every day thinking, ‘What impact am I going to make on my community and what impact am I able to make today on the future generation?’ So, winning an award like this has been really hard for me to accept and value the honor. Because I feel it doesn’t just belong to me. It comes from a community of educators that has raised me and taught me.” https://lnkd.in/g4QWkMpa #teachersmakeadifference #changemaker #duallanguageeducation

New posts are coming on Humanist (stay tuned!), building on Tara Yosso's community cultural wealth model and "asset-based" approaches to teaching, which I wrote about here. Gloria Ladson-Billings' scholarship is such a pleasure to read!

OUR FUTURE depends on transforming EDUCATION Take a moment and enjoy the fascinating story of how applying dynamic systems in education makes miracles. This is a letter from my dear friend - Emeritus Superintendent of Elementary Schools from Venice, who applied The Mereon approach and the program for educators BELONGING at his school, I wish every school in the world was so open-minded and open-hearted for a much-necessary change in education. Deepening the connection between colleagues and students is very crucial, but it all starts with a good relationship with themselves. Today, educators and learners alike are facing very difficult times, physically, emotionally, and mentally. Again, no one goes into the field of education to make money; it is a calling. As a teacher and a school superintendent, I am a little unusual, given that I search outside the system for new opportunities to develop the school and encourage and motivate both my teachers and our students. In recent years I’ve come to realise the urgency of eradicating fear in all its overt and covert forms, this led to my knowing that we as teachers cannot suppress what our own hearts say, nor can we afford to ignore what the children are saying. BELONGING is more than the answer to our prayer. It is a miracle. Every opportunity to work with Lynnclaire and the Mereon team focuses us on deepening our learning and exploring new methods of communication based on what is natural in a truly whole system. They continue to impart a deep understanding by reminding us that HOW we say what we say, the tones we use, has the power to link our hearts and minds or break us apart. Every single participant, teachers, parents and community leaders, report that they have come to see new perspectives of themselves and others, experiencing the unity that is the foundation beneath their obvious diversity.

My piece today for CharterFolk. All in for the James Brown nod too. "I am a charter school supporter. I don’t want to dance around it and I don’t want to be meek about it. I do, however, want to be clear about it and what it means to support a family’s right to choose charter schools and what it will take to help the movement continue to grow, diversify, serve students and build support. Words matter and we should say what we mean. More importantly, we should accept what it means when we say it." https://lnkd.in/eAs6ECrQ
