Perhaps while #M4LHamco is attending this weekend's national anti-public-school convention, they can workshop some answers for our community back at home.

Congratulations to the SRO unit at Carmel Police Department! This well deserved and the parents of CCS students are grateful to have such a solid team keeping all of our kids safe.

#ILEARN is administered across public, charter and private schools. When only 13 of 5,731 school/grade test groups show 90% of kids as being proficient, that’s a pretty strong indication your test isn’t measuring actual proficiency.

It's usually tough to evaluate the quality of #ILEARN's math questions, as Indiana only releases a sample of questions without including the answers. But here's one that we can still tell is pretty terrible.

Having a stressful week? On the bright side, you didn't get called out by 🐢🐢🐢John Green🐢🐢🐢, then respond by broadcasting your cowardice and incompetence to the world. (Unless you're one of four Hamilton East Public Library board members. In which case, you totally deserve the week you're having.)

Thanks for bringing this to the community's attention, 🐢🐢🐢John Green🐢🐢🐢 & Sssarah . The actions of these Hamilton East Public Library board members offer a great opportunity for @BTLawNews to share their thoughts on the legal and ethical obligations established by Indiana's open door laws.

There are reasons that anti-public-education activists like Moms for Liberty Hamilton County, IN repeatedly say our schools and libraries are showing porn to kids, but none of them have anything to do with porn being shown to kids. youtube.com/shorts/RqMWKgx…

Some anti-public-education activists have made a hobby out of showing up to board meetings to read sex scenes from books for high schoolers. If their agenda was actually protecting our young adults, their focus would be elsewhere.

Staggering incompetence. In the private sector, a board member would likely be removed for taking the stance they're "not for or against" eliminating 14% of their organization's annual budget. This is not "faithfully executing the duties of the office."

Hoosiers, if you think parents should be the ones calling the shots on the religious beliefs taught to their kids, it’s time to contact your state senator.

Hey fellow Hoosiers, are you one of the overwhelming majority of parents who are happy with their kids' public school education? I'd love to help you share your story. Details: carmelschoolsdad.com/post/announcin…

Interested in public vs private school enrollment data for the state of Indiana? Here’s some public vs private school enrollment data for the state of Indiana.

If you know a member of the Indiana media who reports on school enrollment trends, please feel free to retweet this at them. Indiana Department of Education (IDOE) uses misleading language that makes it hard to accurately analyze or report on public vs private enrollment.

IREAD and ILEARN scores will be released by Indiana Department of Education (IDOE) in the coming weeks. Inoculate yourself against the narrative that subjecting 8-year-olds to high-stakes, high-pressure, poorly written tests tells us anything concrete about where they're at academically.

Many Hoosiers don't understand just how much handouts to the wealthy are costing their local schools. If you see a candidate supporting 'school choice,' know they intend for these numbers to get a lot bigger next year. Credit to Phil Downs for how to quantify the losses.

Hey fellow Hoosiers, if you care about keeping school board races nonpartisan, it's time to contact your rep and Governor Braun's office.
