Recommended weekend listening: the future of K-12 education is *school's choice.* Add publicly-funded religion to the mix & that means that schools will be able to reject kids who aren't heaven-bound. What could go wrong?? Latest Have You Heard on.soundcloud.com/jzbarMguxX4EgQ…

A thread on what standardized test scores measure

Do you believe that low birthweight, racial discrimination, exposure to violence & neighborhoods safety concerns, parental incarceration, family instability, and food & housing insecurity affect kids' reading & math skills?

After listening to Sold a Story and watching The Right to Read, you might get the impression that the curriculums criticized were universally adopted. Never likely in our decentralized system. Interesting to know the actual adoption rate.

'The approach would never have been adopted in approximately 25% of the nation's schools if it didn't yield results.'

This might be the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard about how things work in American education.

It’s always a good day when you see John Arthur and Amanda Bollinger — great people who love education who want to serve our families in Utah! Vote for them! #uted #ucet2024

Very excited to hear that USBE is launching a statewide digital library soon! #UELMA24 #UCET24

Appreciate hearing Darren Parry at #UELMA24 #UCET24 about the importance of diverse voices and stories in preserving our democratic principles. Thank you!

'Listen, we made voting substantially harder, more confusing, and our administration of it all has become wildly chaotic to the point that even far right conservatives are outraged. But the voters who are mad about it are stupid. And this is their fault. So stupid.'

Can confirm. HECTIC. Why make people pre-register & then still stand in line? Why make people fill out new voter registrations? Why make people wear the wristbands?

Rs are structuring caucus nights to exclude rather than include, and it's a mistake.

WATCH: Here's UtahGOP chair Rob Axson responding to media questions about the chaos at tonight's Republican caucus at Brighton High School (and elsewhere -- reports of long lines and major issues at multiple locations). #utpol KSL 5 TV

anyway, donate to Natalie’s opponent, Amanda Bollinger 🥰

Today I sponsored a Salt Lake County Council resolution asking Natalie Cline to step down from the Utah State Board of Education. It passed 7-2. I believe bullies need to be called out. Elected officials who use children to score political points should not be in office. #utpol #slco

It is permissible in English for a preposition to be what you end a sentence with.

The idea that it should be avoided came from writers who were trying to align the language with Latin, but there is no reason to suggest ending a sentence with a preposition is wrong.

Come and help get Amanda on the ballot! #uted Amanda Bollinger Kelli Cannon Jared Covili

There’s a great candidate running to replace Natalie Cline. What happened today cannot continue to happen. This is far from the first time, but we need it to be the last.
