WHile You Were Teaching 4.25

It has been a long and exciting week in Dallas. More political drama than you can shake a stick at! We were lucky enough to get an interview with Damarcus Offord over in District 9. All candidates have been reached out to. If you want to hear from someone we haven't posted about yet, encourage them to write us back. We want to hear from them as much as you do! 

We also have a reflection on the recent math conference in Boston. Check it out below!
