Garry Rayno: Cost of New Hampshire Vouchers Explodes - About 1/2 of 1% of the voucher users previously were enrolled in public schools. Vouchers are a subsidy for people sending their children to private religious schools. dianeravitch.net/2023/10/22/… via @dianeravitch #privatization

A rare principled Republican here
I went to Lane County yesterday to see the launch of a primary campaign against state Rep. Charlie Conrad and talk to voters. Some constituents really like the guy — but none of the ones I talked to could vote for him in a closed GOP primary. #orpol #orleg

Please retweet this ad immediately. Twitter has blocked her campaign from promoting this ad due to its support for abortion rights. This is the Democrat running for Lt. Governor of North Carolina. Help her promote it for free by hitting retweet.

In less than 2 weeks since Biden announced, Gen-Z for Biden has gained 73,000 followers. It’s no wonder Republicans fear Gen-Z so much.
The energy is here to organize young people for Biden, but we need your help. Can you amplify our movement by retweeting and following?

Killing off public schools & privatizing them is already estimated to be $47.9 billion industry. Bigger than online sports betting. The cannabis industry won’t hit that til 2030. It’s already 3x the size of check cashing / payday loan industry – and just as predatory. (1/4)

I’m very, very concerned about the current push for “school choice” and ESA programs like the one Arizona just passed. Here’s why…
1. The #KochBrothers & the #CNP plan to privatize education, just like Chile. This analysis of the Chilean education system shows that "privatization creates or deepens inequalities between socio-eco-nomic groups and creates a strongly segregated society." globalinitiative-escr.org/wp…
I'm a strong advocate for educational options, and one of the options I support is an improved public education system. Reimagining the school day is one of the ways we can do that...

If your child is struggling with school and you’re looking for some help, here’s a great place to start:
Is your child really not 'fine at school' but you don't know where to turn? Come to my webinar to get a different perspective on what's going on. Yes, it is recorded. No, I won't tell you how to stop them protesting when things aren't right. eventbrite.co.uk/e/433541242…
“We can use fear to control, but we can’t control the fear we create. And if we are creating fear, why are we surprised when children are anxious?”

Do you have an education story to tell? I'd love to hear it, and maybe use it in an upcoming article! I'm looking for adults who would describe themselves as "rediscovering the joy of learning" after difficult or disappointing experiences with their formal education. Is this you?
