Pope Francis lifted the world as he led the Church with his profound moral voice. As he returns to God, may his call to humility and concern for the least among us continue to resound.

World leaders have offered their condolences following the death of former US President Jimmy Carter, who passed away Sunday at the age of 100.
President Jimmy Carter has passed away at the age of 100. He was a symbol of what is best about America: kindness, compassion, duty and service. He will be missed, most of all by those who long for a return of that kind of country, led by a man with such strength of character.
Breaking news: Jimmy Carter, a no-frills and steel-willed Southern governor who was elected president in 1976, died Sunday at his home in Plains, Georgia, according to his son. He was 100 and the oldest living U.S. president of all time.

Raising test scores is not the end goal.

Empty classroom of desks in rows. Text reads: every educator in the building must see themselves as a teacher of all students.
For inclusion to really be successful, it has to be our mission, our ethos as a school. And every educator in the building must see themselves as a teacher of ALL students. #LeadInclusion #EduSky #InclusiveEd #EdLeaders #UDL #InclusiveEd
