Just something I’m thinking about as I watch the SOTU. 5/5
These convos didn’t happen while the kids were in school. The teacher says the texts are the most eye-opening, loving, sad, honest, funny texts she’s seen. She suspects this group chat may shape who the girls become as adults and says “the kids are all right”. 4/5
“Miss X’s Girls” is a group text with every girl in the class (or their parent if they didn’t have a cell phone). Now, the girls are talking back and forth about news from the school, America, Israel, Somalia, Mexico, Ukraine, etc. It’s a very diverse class. 3/5
However, they could go to Israel, a country the family never lived in, but would take them because they couldn’t stay in America. The day the family arrived, the teacher got a text from the girl. It was a group text, slugged “Miss X’s Girls”. 2/5
Story time: Someone I know(Miss X) is an elementary teacher in MN. A few weeks ago, she had a going away party for a student whose family self-deported over ICE concerns. All the kids were sad-they ❤️ this girl.The family couldn’t go back to the country they were from because it was too dangerous.1/5

If the USA Women’s Hockey team wants a real celebration and invite ,,, I’ll host them in Las Vegas. Do some nice dinners and shows and good times.
