In a stunning show of solidarity during a dark day here, thousands of Virginia students have descended on the school’s South Lawn to sit in complete silence at a vigil for those killed last night. I’ve never seen anything like it.

Couldn't agree more @dintersmith. The critical role that librarians & #mediamentors play becomes more apparent every day. They can help youth and parents select & filter what they see and read, online or off, in customized ways. So distressing to see libraries now being defunded.

It is inspiring to read Natasha Tarpley's words here in New America's magazine. And I'm excited to see her new work, such as her children’s mystery podcast, Opal Watson: Private Eye, which featured an 11-year-old African American girl detective.

In All4Ed's education exit poll, 72% of voters view public schools favorably and 56% support increasing federal $$ for them. Public education must be a priority for our next Secretary of Education. #SpeakUpForEd #SupportPublicSchools
