We're not teaching writing; we're teaching students how to write for us, the teachers, specifically. Writing shouldn't be a performance.

Our educational policies are often designed by people who haven't graded a stack of essays in decades. Just saying.

It's not a lack of effort from teachers, but a lack of systemic support for truly impactful writing instruction. #MyKidsCantWrite

If we valued student voice, we'd provide more platforms for their original writing, not just responses to our prompts.

We've stripped writing of its joy and purpose, reducing it to another hoop to jump through for a grade.

The biggest impediment to more writing might just be the sheer fear of failure—for both students and teachers.

The dirty secret is that comprehensive writing instruction requires far more time and individualized attention than the current system allows.

Why ask kids to write if they’re just going to summarize a textbook? That’s not writing; that’s transcription. #MyKidsCantWrite

Great start...book arrived yesterday! Paul Emerich France, #MakeTeachingSustainable

We want critical thinkers but only give them assignments that demand recall. Writing makes you think--and to be honest, too many adults are afraid of kids *actually* thinking.

If teachers aren't assigning more writing, perhaps it's because they're exhausted from fighting a system that devalues it.

The current metrics for school success rarely account for the depth of student writing or critical thought.

We’ve turned writing into a performance, not a process of discovery and communication.

Until we restructure time, class sizes, and teacher support, expecting more robust writing is just wishful thinking.

The ECCA isn't about choice; it's about shifting public dollars to private hands, weakening the foundation of public education for all.
