It is a slap in the face to Albertans to put public funds into building or funding private schools. If private schools want to be treated like public, they can double their class sizes, convert specialty rooms to classrooms, & accept all students. #abed #ableg #FireTheUCP

A great first meeting of the school year today with our Zone 4 trustees. Thanks to Zone Chair Kim Smyth for hosting, Zone Director Trudy Bratland for her leadership and all for the insightful discussion. #abed #abtrustees

Steve Boots Thanks for this video. Such a big issue in our schools. Our very OVERCROWDED schools. #CdnEd #AbEd youtu.be/PPC5t_fSpSY

Private schools should not receive public funds. Period. If private schools need room for more students, they can just add more desks. Many have class sizes that are about half of public school classes. #abed #ableg #DanielleSmithIsUnfitToLead #FireTheUCP

Auxesis in action. Discomfort becomes 'unsafe', words become 'hate', difficulty becomes 'crisis'. I would love to see a chart of who escalates language the most! Care to guess which end of the political spectrum ramps it up? The state of the union in #AbED and #abpoli

Here we go! Danielle Smith now muses about fully funding private schools and bringing Arizona style voucher system. Notice that Alberta’s education ranks top 5 in the world and Arizona is eons behind. She also admires “elite” private schools for rich. #ableg #Yeg #Yyc #abed

Forget about “rights” etc. #abed In Ab taxpayer pays for 1. Public 2. Catholic (Separate) 3. Francophone-both 4. Charters 5. Private Accredited funded, Accredited non funded (no Ab curriculum) Registered- not required to use certificated teachers or teach (curriculum).

Albertan AF See how that works? Alberta either fragments education dollars to every entity ( last count that is 8) or “we” all contribute and work for a strong public system. If it isn’t working- why? Eg special ed. Parent wants to segregate their child - they pay. #abed

Great to see CUPE come out in favour of school choice! Without school choice, teachers can only be hired by a government monopoly! With school choice they have a choice of hundreds (soon thousands) of different employers, which also helps lift wages! #ableg #abpoli #abed

Calling new teachers! 📣 Expand your network, gather new resources, and meet other new teachers at the Beginning Teachers Conference! The conference takes place in Calgary, Oct. 4 & 5, for teachers living south of Red Deer. Registration: shorturl.at/GUSIB #abed #ableg
