We’re one of 150+ orgs calling on elected officials to save essential NYC Public Schools programs currently funded by temporary COVID-19 $$ that will run out in June. Our leaders need to take action now to avoid dealing a massive setback to public education. advocatesforchildren.org/sites/default/…


Dr. Michael Paff (he/him) Reading is a civil right👏

Dr. Michael Paff (he/him) Ppl need to know that the kids that can’t read are everywhere. I want the kids of moms of liberty to read. Why? So they can read the books they are working so hard to ban.


So proud to be at the 10th anniversary of the Morristown Festival of Books. My mom started this amazing event what seems like ages ago with an idea, some grit, and a bunch of volunteer friends! #ILoveYouMom Morristown Festival of Books



Thank you Professor Copeland for inviting us at Literacy Academy Collective to speak to your class at NYU Steinhardt Teaching and Learning We loved sharing our story to your amazing class of teachers.


Mississippi wasn’t a miracle. It was a decade in the making of hard work from lots of people. You can have your opinions about SoR but the data tells the story. Kymyona Burk, Ed.D.

I love how Alabama St University's leadership responded to NCTQ (National Council Teacher Quality). Shows leadership and commitment to the mission of educating students. Rather than deflecting, Alabama State is embracing the feedback and focusing on growth. HBCUCONNECT.COM NCTQ


Governor Kathy Hochul's #SOTS plan aims to ensure that our kids are taught to read using evidence-based practices. Funding professional development is vital. The Path Forward brings together NY's key institutions to ensure that our teachers are well-prepared to teach reading.



We are excited that NYS Governor Kathy Hochul is pushing the state towards the direction needed so all children in the state can be proficient readers.


Have you heard? District 17, in partnership with Literacy Academy Collective, is crafting a school for students with dyslexia! So excited to witness this work coming alive!

Google's HQ replaced 993 housing units including 298 #permanently #affordable under #MIH. The rezoning, lost 62% of the housing Community Board 2M & Gale A. Brewer supported. To put this in perspective, NYC lost nearly 80% of the "projected" affordable housing in #SoHoNoHo rezoning.
