While #NCSS2025 may be in the books, we're still thrilled with all that we experienced during those few days in Washington, D.C. #CivicEducation matters, and the many educators, students, and more who showed up proved just how impactful it can be.

We couldn't agree more with 2025 American Civic Education Teacher Award winner, Rob Schulte! Civic education empowers students to achieve everything they dream of.

This was an absolute delight. Mark is a stellar, stellar educator -- and yes, a total hoot. We missed @sydgolston.bsky.social very much, but she was there in spirit guiding us through the ever so important topic of boarding schools. #ncss #ncss2025

Day 3 of #NCSS2025
Final morning in DC with a @retroreport breakfast (thanks for always spoiling your teachers) and now our train ride back home with an extra bag of books and goodies to bring back to school. #DemocracyDependsOnIt

Afterwards, Andrea and I walked down to the White House to see the National Christmas Tree (so disappointing & not the one on the pic) and met my niece Abby for a quick visit. Then we were off to a Happy Hour thanks to @retroreport
#DemocracyDependsOnIt #NCSS2025

Then I got to be in the room with Associate Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson. Hearing her speak about the law, justice and her confirmation woven together with personal stories of her parents, her mentors, and the college best friends who lifted her up was profoundly inspiring. #NCSS2025

Day 2 of #NCSS2025

Spent the morning on different sessions learning more about indigenous history and various opportunities to add different voices into the classroom.

#DemocracyDependsOnIt #NCSS2025

Such a great time at #NCSS2025 in Washington DC this year. Our presentation went great, and yes, @coachshawb.bsky.social and I did have matching TR socks and shoes for our presentation.

Day 1 of #NCSS2025

An amazing day catching up with my history loving friends from all over the country and learning awesome ideas to bring back to the classroom!!! #NCSS2025 #DemocracyDependsOnIt

“THE LIGHT LOOKS LIKE ME foregrounds “love” as its organizing principle...But exploration in the 13-24 age range is often tied to identity formation, and this is the underlying structural concept at play” @shoutmousepress.bsky.social Booth 701 #NCSS2025 indiereader.com/book_review/...
