Hundreds of Texas students caught vaping are getting sent to alternative schools under a new state law, Talia Richman reports.

In Dallas, the number of punished students was one in five. Very interesting reporting.

We found apparent campaign finance violations among 3 School Committee and 1 Select Board candidates in Rochester (3 of 4 won their races)

I'm so grateful Idaho Education News gave me the opportunity to share my own story.

I took a gap year after high school. With that, came doubts from some adults in my life. But that year was, by far, the best learning experience I've ever had — I've never regretted it.

We often think of Southern/East Coast cities when we look back on school racial integration.

But Seattle deserves more scrutiny. SCOTUS ruled on 2 cases abt integration policies here, one in 80s, & 16 yrs ago. Here's what we learned after doing our own scrutiny.

I gave an intimate look at the culture wars affecting New Hampshire schools - as two mandates collided with each other. One was a divisive concepts measure, similar to laws in Texas, Florida and other states. The other was a mandate to teach about the Holocaust.

PPS magnets seem to exist for the “most privileged, most advantaged and least disabled,” co-chair of the board's policy committee Pam Harbin said, increasing inequities in the district.

Attempts to reform the policy have seen little results. 🧵
