I testified against HB900 in the last session, as did an eighth-grader. If you fall anywhere between "published author" and "middle schooler," love the freedom to read, and can make it to to the Capitol in Austin this Thursday to testify, I hope you will.

January books so far: Playing the Cards You're Dealt by Varian Johnson (love Austin-area authors!), Boy 2.0 by Tracey Baptiste, Fortress of Snow by Melanie Dickerson, Wolf Hollow by Lauren Wolk, Odder by Katherine Applegate, and The Bletchley Riddle by Ruta Sepetys & Steve Sheinkin. #HappyReading

Very proud of - and thankful for - the incredible students and parent volunteers who spoke at tonight's LISD School Board meeting in celebration of our many community programs! I am lucky to work with great people, and I love learning with them every day! #MyStudentsAreFantastic #LoveMyVolunteers

Excited to rebuild a positive network of educators, librarians, writers, and other creators! Happy to connect with learners - what voices in education are not-to-be-missed?
