School Safety: Include Teacher and Student Support!

What’s being done to improve school safety? There’s much discussion about school violence and “core values,” and dealing with horrific events once they occur.

“Duck and Cover Kids,” and the Problems with “Teachers Packing”

March 29, 2018 By Nancy Bailey 2 Comments

By Jim Gifford I recall from my youth the cliché “Duck and Cover”.  This was the catch-phrase created for our nuclear war drills which were designed to prepare all children at school to hide or “duck” under their own desks in order to survive a hydrogen bomb. Yes, survive a nuclear holocaust.  No bombs were […]

Nancy Bailey: Reading Disabilities: Focus on Public Schools NOT School Choice!

“It’s unfair to say public school teachers fail to teach reading, while charter schools show substandard results. This creates a double standard.” @NancyEBailey1

The focus should be on lifting traditional public schools & reading programs for many students who attend those schools rather than on unproven private and charter schools. Fix IDEA by increasing options. https://nancyebailey.com/2023/01/29/reading-disabilities-focus-on-public-schools-not-school-choice/

Special interests call ESA vouchers “scholarships” because private schools select their students. It’s not “school choice,” it’s the school’s choice 😡#AZVoucherWatch #VouchersHurt #FundOurSchools

On-demand standardized testing has no place in kindergarten. There are far more appropriate and meaningful methods of assessing young children. https://twitter.com/reimagschool/status/1619665302450753536

My wife's Kindergarten students felt very stressed and were crying when they had to take a standardized test. When she reported this to administrators their solution was "test them until they cry, and then stop." #testthemtiltheycry #resisttesting
