First half of meeting- How can we raise student test scores and get students to take them more seriously? Second half- What BS project can we give the students who failed the test so we can give them a passing grade?

I wrote the tweet below before I knew the “303” case was a *hypothetical* about something that never happened and likely never would IOW it’s the most on-brand MAGA b*llshit I’ve seen this...well, *week*, I guess Next week there’ll be more madeup b*llshit for MAGAs to lie about

I’ve long wanted the Democratic Party to adopt as its chief rhetorical line that Republicans need to *stop being fucking cowards*. Their hysterical paranoia about things that are literally not happening and are never going to happen is destroying this country and I’m sick of it.

Powerful lecture from Jackie Goldberg of the Los Angeles school board on protests against a children’s book with one sentence about families with two moms or dads. She says this is personal for her and really lets loose at the end.

Are you a Republican? Are you tired of all the woke propaganda? And do you support boycotts? Then you'll love the Boycott Binder!

Substitute "woke" with "anti-racism" and you'll understand how this will look in 10 years.

DeSantis: As president, I recognize that the woke mind virus represents a war on the truth so we will wage a war on the woke. We will fight the woke in education, we will fight the woke in corporations, we will fight the woke in the halls of congress.

JUST ONCE, I want to be part of a staff meeting where the agenda reads ‘Things We Are Removing From Teacher Plates.’

Ok, hear me out: yes to staffing shortages and teacher burnout being a factor, but also phones. Anecdotally…1/

One of the biggest issues in education… The people that make decisions for what is best for students in schools are NOT teachers. In fact, teachers are rarely asked.
