For the first time in 6 years, homelessness in Los Angeles is DOWN! Equally promising — Angelenos who moved into permanent housing is UP (all time high). “Today we know that we can and we will bring people inside, and move L.A. in a different direction.” — Mayor Karen Bass

What does effective literacy look like for classrooms with #MultilingualLearners? Beyond learning content, it’s also about finding joy in reading. Listen to Dr. Laurie Olsen on the National Committee for Effective Literacy Podcast. #NationalLiteracyMonth buff.ly/3MtbtGc
