BlkEdFamilYYYYYYYY! 🗣️🖤 WE DID ITTTTT! The 2nd Annual #BlkEdSummit was a HUGE SUCCESS! 🔥🔥🔥 A SOLD OUT professional learning experience for educators, hosted right here in Wilmington, Delaware, and BABYYYYY THE VIBES WERE IMMACULATE! 🙌🏾 We LEARNED! We LAUGHED! We CRIED! We CONNECTED! We CELEBRATED! And most importantly, we REMEMBERED WHOSE WE ARE! 🖤 And a HUGEEEE shoutout to our phenomenal keynote speaker, Dr. Chris Emdin(@chrisemdin ), who brought the FIRE, challenged us to think deeper, reminded us of the power we hold as educators, and left us feeling SEEN, AFFIRMED, and READY to shake things up! 🔥🖤 THIS is what happens when brilliance meets purpose! The room was INTERGENERATIONAL, filled with educators from across the ENTIRE state of Delaware, with MOST school districts represented! From aspiring educators to seasoned veterans, classroom teachers to educational leaders, we showed up, showed OUT, and poured into one another! And THAT is what this is all about! Creating the spaces we need, having the conversations that matter, and building the community we deserve! DELAWARE, LOOK WHAT WE DID! 🗣️🔥 To every speaker, attendee, partner, sponsor, volunteer, and person who believed in this vision — THANK YOUUUUU! You helped make this one for the BOOKS! 📚 TWO YEARS DOWN AND WE’RE JUST GETTING STARTED! 🚀 📸: @dontjudgemeproductions #BlkEdSummit #NOIREdu #BlackEducators #DelawareEducators BlackEducation RememberingWhoseWeAre

📞 Y’ALL, I WENT TO THE MEETING FOR US… because I heard you couldn’t make it! EPISODE 2: WHAT ARE WE GONNA DO ABOUT DELAWARES UNDERPERFORMING SCHOOLS? Well, At the September Public Education Funding Commission (PFEC) meeting, Delaware’s Secretary of Education presented the “Delaware’s School Performance & Support Framework” a proposed framework outlining FIVE tiers of school support, accountability, and intervention. The goal? To provide different levels of support based on schools’ needs and performance. 📣 NOW IT’S YOUR TURN! The framework is still a DRAFT, and the Delaware Department of Education is seeking public feedback! Whether you’re a teacher, student, parent, caregiver, school leader, or community member, this is an opportunity to learn more, ask questions, and share your perspective. 🔗 READ THE PROPOSAL & SUBMIT YOUR FEEDBACK! Link in bio. Also anyone willing to be in conversation with me about what this means for Wilmington, reach out! Let’s chat! Stay informed. Stay engaged. Make your voice heard! 💙💚 And don’t worry, I’ma call you back after the next one! 📞😂 #IWentToTheMeetingForUs #DelawareEducation #WilmingtonDE #EducationalAdvocacy OEA

REPRESENTATION, is so important! Sometimes you have to see it to believe you can be it. 👑📚 During OEA Reading Day, we had the honor of welcoming Miss Delaware Anaya Harrison to read with students at EastSide Charter School, a school she once attended herself! Students didn’t just see Miss Delaware walk through their school in a crown and sash. They saw someone who once walked their same halls come back to sit with them, open a book, and model the joy and importance of reading. That’s the power of representation. In literacy, representation allows children to see themselves in the stories they read. In education, it allows them to see themselves in the people teaching, leading, creating, and pouring into them. And beyond the classroom, it can expand their imagination of who they can become. Thank You Anaya For Your Yes & Your Commitment to Community🎥👑 Follow @officeofeducationaladvocacy for more #OEAReadingDay #RepresentationMatters #LiteracyMatters #EastSideCharter #MissDelaware BuildingTheVillage

Black Educators’ Summit 2026 Remembering whose we are. Yesterday, Black educators, leaders, and community gathered in Wilmington for the 2026 BlkEd Summit at The Mill. An intergenerational conversation about education, legacy, identity, and the responsibility of carrying something forward. Because this work did not begin with us. We inherited classrooms, institutions, stories, sacrifices, and dreams. Now we decide what gets preserved, what gets challenged, and what gets passed on. This is what community looks like when we remember that education is bigger than a profession. It is lineage. Proud to have documented a piece of it.

It takes a village to teach a child. 📚🤎 And here in Wilmington, we believe the whole city has a role to play. Literacy doesn’t only live inside classrooms. It lives in our homes, libraries, community centers, barbershops, front porches, parks and anywhere a child has someone willing to open a book and read alongside them. As we close out National Literacy Month, the challenge doesn’t end here. 📖 Pick up a book. 🤎 Read with a child. 🗣️ Share a story. ✨ Help a young person discover the power of their own voice. At home. In the streets. Wherever you are. Follow @officeofeducationaladvocacy to stay in the loop! Wilmington, let’s keep reading. 📚 A huge thank you to @eastsidecharter x @dr.abeezy , for always opening your doors to community! #WilmingtonDE #NationalLiteracyMonth #WilmingtonReads #LiteracyMatters #ItTakesAVillage RaisingReaders OfficeOfEducationalAdvocacy
