Many school districts struggle to hire special education professionals. During the 2020-21 school year, 40% of public schools that had a special education teaching vacancy reported that they either found it very difficult to fill the position or were not able to do so. #cfefund #educationaladvocacy #scholarship #bettereducation

When it comes to hiring teachers, there's often a tendency to prioritize professional experience, especially in high school settings. However, it's time to rethink our approach, particularly when it comes to elementary education. While seasoned high school educators bring valuable skills, the formative years of elementary schooling require a specialized touch. That's why it's crucial to take a different stance and prioritize hiring professional teachers with expertise in elementary education. By doing so, we can ensure that our youngest learners receive the tailored support and guidance they need to thrive academically and personally. Let's shift our focus to prioritize excellence in elementary education. #Education #ElementaryEducation #Hiring #Teachers #AcademicExcellence 📚

As National School Counseling Week comes to a close, I reflect on the importance of the role of the school counselor. They are a bridge for so many vital functions of a campus. School counselors are student advocates, peer mediators, crisis managers, academic advisors, and strategic planners. While most of their work is behind the scenes, they lend a listening ear, an open heart, and a helpful hand to students during critical times in their development. They connect families to community resources. They aid staff during times of crisis. If you know a school counselor, recognize that they are likely carrying many unspoken burdens for those they serve. #schoolcounselor #k12education #k12schools #socialemotionallearning #mentalhealthmatters

FACT: Charter Schools enroll students who need help in school and do not expel or “counsel out” students who don’t perform. Charter schools welcome students of all learning levels and do not enroll only high performing students. In the 2023-24 academic year in Rochester, 4 students were expelled and 2 students withdrew before expulsion procedures were completed. This represents less than one tenth of a percent of all charter school students. Charter schools do not “return students to the district” due to low academic performance.

#ICYMI: Annie Kessler, Executive Director of City Year New York, was featured on CBS News last month. She spoke about our work to recruit Student Success coaches to curb the teacher shortage in New York City. "A lot of mentors come in knowing they want to go into education, and we give them experience in the classroom and training to put them on that path. Then we have a lot of young people who come in and they really don't know what they want to do next, and then they decide over the course of the year that education is the career path for them."

My new blog post on "Navigating the Community College Landscape Toward Relationship and Community - Seeking True North: Charting a Course of Inquiry" is up today. An excerpt - "I returned to school, in 1993, seeking community – something I felt that I had lost somewhere over the duration of my teaching journey. I pursued my personal quest for teacher conversation and entered into a Bachelor of Education in Adult Education degree program at a satellite university campus.
