@BetsyDeVos So much research shows that 3rd gr retention is bad for students it's hard to believe you think this is fine. There are many alternatives. https://nancyebailey.com/2017/10/09/force-flunk-destroying-a-childs-love-of-reading-and-their-life/

We "get to know where the money is being spent"? Great! So every private school receiving tax dollars will have to open their books and be subject to the same standards of financial transparency as public schools, right? Right?

I’ve known @Brandon4Chicago for a long time.

On a CTU trip to Springfield I got to witness firsthand the respect that electeds have for his integrity and ability to work in the political arena.

People’s faces light up when they see him. His is that dynamic.

Always comical for @BetsyDeVos trolls whining that teachers contribute to us.

Aren’t privatizer billions enough for them?

We will block vouchers again with the powerful teacher/preacher dynamic duo!

Thank you @TexasAFT @OfficialATPE @UEATexas @txstateteachers @texascta! #txed

As MN seems about to adopt a drill and kill phonics fundamentalist literacy curriculum it's worth examining that now “There’s a whole generation of kids who associate reading with assessment" and have come to hate it https://www.theatlantic.com/books/archive/2023/03/children-reading-books-english-middle-grade/673457/
