ACH Child & Family Services’ Post

Reflecting upon my own upbringing, I recall a lack of access to quality education, a limitation that hindered the acquisition of even the most fundamental literacy skills. With the passage of time, this narrative replayed itself in the lives of countless other children. It was then, amid these shared experiences, that a fervent desire was kindled within me. A desire that is steer towards the change in educational sector ensuring that every child, regardless of circumstance, is bestowed with the gift of a quality education.

A little off topic today but this is near and dear to me. As a parent and advocate for education, I've witnessed firsthand the incredible impact of the GT (Gifted and Talented) program on our children's lives. Unfortunately, due to state budget cuts, our daughter's GT program, SPIRAL, is facing imminent restructuring, which would significantly diminish the quality of instruction next year. But there's hope, and you can be a part of it. The PTA is rallying support to preserve the SPIRAL program through donations to the Spring Branch Educational Foundation (SBEF). Your contribution will directly aid in sustaining this vital program, ensuring that our children continue to receive the enrichment and education they deserve. Here's how you can help: 1. Click here to donate through PayPal: https://lnkd.in/gtz5uzkt (Note: PayPal fees apply, and covering these fees would be immensely helpful.) 2. Mail a check made out to Spring Branch Educational Foundation with "Save SPIRAL" in the memo line to: Spring Branch Education Foundation Attention: Save SPIRAL 955 Campbell Rd., Suite 206 Houston, TX 77024 Your generosity will make a significant difference in the lives of our students. Plus, your donation is tax-deductible, as SBEF is a 501c3 organization (EIN# 76-0392316). #EducationMatters #SupportOurStudents *31% of SPIRAL kids come from Title 1 schools. 

For most of us, it's probably not normal to spend our own money just to do our job. For teachers, unfortunately it is. Teachers spend an average of $860 out of pocket on school supplies each year so their students won’t go without. At AdoptAClassroom.org, we help teachers get the funding they need to equip students with essential learning tools and materials, without having to dig into their own pockets. If you’re interested in learning more about what we do or how you can help, visit us at https://lnkd.in/gTWVNK9c BONUS: This week is Teacher Appreciation Week. If you’d like to show your support for teachers with a donation, donations to AdoptAClassroom.org will be DOUBLED all week*, so your dollar will make an even bigger impact.

One of the key themes we must take away from our ongoing analysis of the K12 EdTech safety benchmark data throughout this year is that current software norms [like the finding below] result in extremely risky technology for children [of all ages]. Recall that 28% of the apps in our benchmark WEREN'T edtech apps, but mixed audience services like news and reference sites, games, streaming media, etc. Nearly 80% of the sampled of apps were collecting location information. Certainly, the majority of these apps don't have a sufficiently compelling need to collect location information. We must not become complacent and regard this as an acceptable situation. The numbers may seem overwhelming and the situation may seem intractable, but it starts with awareness, knowledge, facts. It starts with constant, accurate measurement and reporting of the risky invisible behaviors of the software. ISL will continue to catalog and publish the unavoidable safety risks in software in order to hold developers accountable. (And there's still time to avail of a tax-deductible contribution to further our efforts. :-)
