It is always a delight to be in community with the @aefpweb.bsky.social community! This conference was extra special with the chance to check out some Chicago museums with my fam. If we didn’t get a chance to talk or connect please reach out! Would love to hear folks’ feedback on how AEFP26 went.

It was great to see John Easton, Senior Advisor on EdWorkingPapers Review Board. In the plenary session shortly after this selfie was taken, former U.S. Secretary of Education gave John & the Chicago Consortium for School Research a huge shoutout. We're honored to work with John on EdWorkingPapers.

I chaired an awesome session on understanding + responding to student absenteeism this morning. The panel highlighted findings from qual + quant studies from 5 states, underscoring the role of policy + practice, sense making + discretion, and the need for resources in promoting attendance #AEFP2026
