People are people. We may differ in language and culture, but what we share is our common humanity. #HumanRightsDay

Our common humanity. #peoplearepeople #somoshumanos
From language teacher Laura Devlin: I told students & families that my course has two overarching goals: 1) improving our minds (being bilingual strengthens the brain); and 2) making the world a kinder and safer place (although language and culture may differ, what we share is our common humanity). Hashtag: People are people.

Racism is the rejection of our common humanity. #FightRacism to help build a world without discrimination and intolerance. #FightRacism to stand up for our common humanity!

Young person from Texas reflects (in Spanish) on how she's grown by choosing to live in Spain & become bilingual. Where she grew up, using a language other than English was actively discouraged. Leaving her "bubble" has expanded her definition of success. youtu.be/hAsczczehMY

"How sad to think that an adult looking into the faces of my students might see a workforce being trained to strengthen the economy. I see individuals being prepared to take their rightful place in civic life. To read with discernment. To think with clarity. To act with integrity." (Teacher Laura Devlin replying to Secretary of Education Miguel Cardona, 19 April 2021)

Why the false dichotomy? Purpose does not exist in isolation; it rests at the intersection of skill, satisfaction, significance, and compensation. When I sought purpose, I found teaching. Teaching is a job with purpose.

Incredibly disappointed that no Virtual option exists for this morning's Keynote! Noticed it while creating my schedule and thought it was a glitch that would be corrected by this morning, but ... no. (The a.m. & p.m. Keynotes yesterday were outstanding!) #NJEAConvention #NJEA22
