California teaches kindergarteners about transgenderism but not their letter sounds

However much you hate the public school establishment, it’s not enough

Fascinating graphs from the Edunomics Lab, comparing school staffing numbers (red) and school enrollment (blue)

Staff numbers have ballooned even as student enrollment has declined.

So much for supposed 'teacher shortages.'

Two things improve teacher quality: content knowledge and experience

Formal university teacher prep programs? Absolutely useless

It’s not compassionate to “affirm” a student’s confused gender identity or false pronouns. It’s not. It’s not. It’s not.

It’s cruel. Its complicit. It will be remembered as we do the eugenicists and lobotomists.

This message is so perfectly stated. It is calm yet powerful … and should be obvious to every thinking adult.

This time in American history will be looked on with shock and horror. They will ask, “What were they thinking!?!”

Daniel Buck, “Instruction geek” There might be five kids in there who just want an education or at least a safe place to be. They have that stolen from them by thugs who don't deserve to be there and should be permanently expelled. We owe them nothing when they cannot act right.

All these videos of fights in schools just leave me so disheartened.

Kids shouldn’t have to live in these unsafe, toxic environments

But the adults in charge have bought into utopian ideas about abolishing discipline and now the kids are suffering when they should be learning

Teachers at Columbia High School in New Jersey received a letter informing them about Ramadan...

...and how the U.S. is co-conspiring with Israeli Zionists to 'enact a genocide'

I visited a public school in the US this week.

I had tears in my eyes later on when thinking about it.

Those poor kids don’t stand a chance.

So many people just have no idea what goes on in schools. 😳

New meta-analysis:

We better comprehend and recall information when reading on print versus screens.

We need to move past talking just about banning phones and start talking about rolling back 1-to-1 computing.

Mounting evidence that the apoplectic reaction to Trump on the left did more damage to our institutions than Orange Man Bad himself
