The Editor’s Notes
Two important webinars with our colleagues at the Hunt Institute before the holidays. Today at 3pm, they’ll be talking about opportunities for systemic innovation. Register here. On Thursday at 2pm, they’ll be talking about the marginalization of Black girls and women in education. Register here.
Every single day, it is our privilege to tell the stories of our students, our state, and our future.

Thank you for supporting our work in communities across this state we all call home.
