Word wall for classroom 2 ☺️
Tried their Chicago offices, got a voicemail box for one so left a message but no option to leave a message for the other, it just ended the call after telling me all staffers were busy 🙄

Thinking about this Gandalf LOTR quote: “Despair, or folly? It is not despair, for despair is only for those who see the end beyond all doubt. We do not. It is wisdom to recognize necessity, though as folly it may appear to those who cling to false hope.”

This feels like an apt metaphor for how I’ve been experiencing everything this week (and what a week it was, indeed).

Do your best to communicate safety anyway. If you feel hurt or dismayed that someone doesn't see you as safe, work that out in your own time. Remember that more than a safe *person,* people need safe *communities* and webs of support, so don't go it alone. When in doubt, connect more. (4/4)

Apparently it was the Secret Service? I still don’t understand why they were at an elementary school.

UPDATE: “The U.S. Secret Service told the I-Team they approached a South Side school Friday.
Chicago Public Schools officials had initially said the agent or agents were from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.”
