Hitler thought he was saving his country, too. This is so easily disproved.

Are these same protestors concerned about the way school vouchers and ESAs deplete public school resources? Just curiousā¦

Is there any sort of plan to have a federal department replace the current DoE? Would this just shift all power to individual states? What changes would happen on a local and state level if this DID somehow happen?

I think that means they stand for⦠money? š« These are definitely very telling times right now. Universities need to make their moves carefully and thoughtfully.

Possibly. I do lobbying for healthcare organizations, but I had to have the wherewithal to find the nonprofits and alliances that do that work. Might be helpful even to have a list of organizations that have advocacy departments for people to contact.

Hoping this model of resistance spreads like wildfire.

Do you anticipate an increase in educational lobbying given the current political climate around education topics? Do you think this type of grassroots activism from teachers broadly speaking would be beneficial?

It seems like theyād rather just penalize less wealthy people by redistributing funds to places that arenāt necessary rather than investing in spaces where it could help many students instead of one. š¤¦š»āāļø

Thankful for passionate educator leaders like yourself who care and continue pushing forward. This current political climate can feel so discouraging.

My district is currently selling themselves HARD this school choice week. Itās disheartening to see schoolās become businesses in need of marketing experts.

Ah that tracks. Has anyone been studying what percentage of our local communities support these orders? Or are these voices just the loudest ones in the room?

That executive order was so painful to read. I donāt even know where to start with the problems. Has he been in a classroom lately, talked with education expertsā¦. or does he just listen to whatās happening in his biased Tik Tok feed and then write up these orders? š¤¦š»āāļø

Why do you think theyād want to move from religious private to charter schools? Is it all about funding differences? If vouchers are still happening, what is the difference for the people wanting these schools?

It may be useful to look at schools in Utah who hold seminary courses in student school schedules. This has been happening in LDS-dominated public schools for decades now. I feel like this conversation could open up options that may not involve creating an entire charter based on religion.

What was the teacherās pre-teaching, so students could succeed with this? I find internet dialogue to be generally less engaging for my students, but this seems highly effective in this classroom.

Did anyone check her sermon prior? Iām hoping it was completely a blindeside for them and think we should turn her into a Saint or put her up for the Nobel Peace prize. What. a. Power. Move. And imagine all the voices she spoke for without hers trembling even once? Historic. š„¹
