It's always a privilege and a great morning when you get to hear a good word from Dr. ! Get into it now!
A great word from RESI Associate Director, Charlyn Henderson this morning:
"The beauty of us being here together is our work and our commitment to the future of this nation, and beyond, and it's what connects us. It is important as we do this work that we give ourselves grace and we know we are not alone. We are here together, whether we are side by side, whether we are connected on social media, but we are here together. We are never alone.
The other way is that we are here to stand firm on our knowledge of our profession, our belief, and what we can accomplish together in partnerships with our families and in the communities we serve. We are here to be anchors for each other and in this current wave of policy. We know what needs to be done."
Today, we ask ourselves "Why Reimagine?" Why are we Reimagining what education is and could be? How are we healing ourselves and our students to support their academic, social, and emotional development and their mental health?

This summer, as educators come together to heal and reboot, the Reimagining Education Summer Institute (RESI) is leveraging their knowledge base on good teaching and best practices for a racially and ethnically diverse democracy into the policy space in a special virtual session titled “Reimagining Policy: A Roundtable with Policymakers, Students, Educators, and Communities.”
At this event, there will be a critical policy dialogue between educators, students, researchers and policymakers who care deeply about issues of race and education. Educators, students and researchers will share their perspectives on the policy barriers they face when trying to enact anti-racist education strategies, while policymakers will discuss the work they are doing to address these policy barriers and support policies that allow for transformative, anti-racist education reform.
