🌟BLACK HISTORY IN HEALTH EDUCATION🌟

Here's 8️⃣ ways you can infuse black history into #healthed (or #physed).

It's not intended to be a "this is only for a #blackhistorymonth lesson".

PLEASE, infuse these ideas within your curriculum!

📣Advocacy Alert! Oppose MN HF65!

What is HF65? It is requesting to repeal the health ed standards rulemaking legislation. Simply, this would remove funding and stop the creation of MN state standards in #healthed.

Please! If you haven’t contacted your senators, please do so ASAP!

Vote “No” for Linda McMahon for Secretary of Education! She is unqualified and does not support public education!
📢ADVOCACY ALERT!

I just emailed my senators requesting them to vote "No" for Linda McMahon for Secretary of Education.
