Atlanta mom’s fight for her son’s school

Securing a good education in Atlanta can mean fighting through housing instability, sky-high rents, and endless paperwork. Sechita McNair, a single mom and out-of-work film crew veteran, went to extraordinary lengths—working extra Uber shifts, borrowing money, and moving twice—just so her son Elias could stay at his high school. But the struggle didn’t end with a new lease: unreliable landlords, eviction threats, and academic setbacks kept piling up. For families like hers, the zip code you can afford often decides your child’s future. How do you think our city should support parents facing these impossible choices? #Relationships #Atlanta #EducationMatters

Beyond the School Lunch

I’m an elementary school teacher. Every lunch break, I notice a few kids eating slowly, because they know there won’t be food at home later. Many of their parents rely on SNAP, but when their income rises just a few dollars above the threshold, their benefits are cut. I wish someone understood—poverty isn’t a math problem. Those few dollars can mean a child’s next meal. #SNAPLife #ChildHunger #EducationMatters
