I’m using every resource and opportunity to make it better and to change the odds for young people, as those from backgrounds like mine are an increasing proportion of our student population. 🙏🏽

To understand where I’m going, it helps to know where I’ve come from. I didn’t go from the ‘hood to hooded with my doctorate from Johns Hopkins to “make it out.” I’m not satisfied with “beating the odds.” 1/2 linkedin.com/posts/rudyruiz2…

The #KnowledgeMatters Podcast hears educators + administrators explain how this enables the focus on instruction.

Thx @DrRudyRuiz for speaking to my @UMDPublicPolicy students about how @EdifyTeachers is centering Black & Brown voices in addressing teacher diversity!
