Parents are more conservative than the professional class of certified child experts.

In #Jeffco , the Meyers Pool scandal is the new InBloom.

Excellent reporting on reading in OR. So many parallels to CO specifically local control as a barrier to doing it right and lack of enforcement affecting implementation. We must do better for our kids! #edcolo

Affirmations about our worth as educators may make us feel good in the moment but they don’t solve the problem of dysfunctional systems or exploitative structures.

I looked at this group's 'far right' agenda and it was all about gifted and talented classes and entrance exams, which I guess we're calling 'far right' now

Imo a real fissure between education advocates who want to improve academic achievement even if it results in wider variations, and those who are aiming for a version of equity which includes lower achievement and less variation.

Neither side admits shortcomings #edcolo

A judge just ruled that four members of the Dougco school board violated the CO open meetings law when they decided, in a series of one-on-one meetings, to 'end' then-Superintendent Corey Wise's 'involvement with the district either by resignation or by termination.' #copolitics

Great conversation with Mayor John Beltrone
regarding Jefferson articulation area, and the importance of Jeffco Public Schools working with Edgewater to build great education opportunities for all students. Buildings, playgrounds, and strong programs are critical. #jeffco #edcolo

Scott Baldermann is running for re-election to the Denver school board. Three of the seven seats are up for grabs in November, and he's the only incumbent running. co.chalkbeat.org/2023/6/20/2375… #edcolo

Next chapter coming up in #Jeffco 's Meyer's Pool scandal: Who will pay for the cost overruns? CORAs show the original cost estimate of $35m is now up to $42m. Will that mean more tax$ leaving district classrooms to fund the GIFT to #Arvada ? #edcolo #copolitics The Colorado Sun

BREAKING: Judge finds DCSD school board members broke Colorado open meetings law, declines to issue permanent injunction #cora #edcolo #coml douglascountynewspress.net/stories/judge-…

Well said! #edcolo

Two important cases involving Colorado school boards and open meeting laws.

First one now decided.

Anyone want to wager on DPS for the second? #edcolo

I wish the author had studied open enrollment in #edcolo , where it has been in place for years. In #Jeffco , almost 50% of students choice away from their assigned school, which creates substantial mgmt challenges. Center on Reinventing Public Education Edunomics Lab #edpolicy #k12

As Ashley Rogers Berner's research has found, and as we experienced while living there, Alberta's #k12 system meets many of Chad Aldeman's tests and delivers high performance for a wide range of students. #edpolicy #edchat #edcolo #suptchat

This drives me nuts. We no longer care about how good public schools are at educating kids.

“Harris went on to praise Denver Public Schools for being one of the first districts in the nation to adopt a climate action plan.” coloradosun.com/2023/06/16/kam…

The forces that make a person want to be a school teacher make that same person unsuited to using a gun to shoot someone.

Closing a million computer tabs to wrap up this series. Last note: Emily Hanford's reporting on reading has been transformative. Grateful to have learned from her, and that she began asking years ago: Why have we accepted that so many kids struggle to read?

It’s a really good point, which the professional class ignores. #edcolo

Our deepest gratitude to Governor Jared Polis for visiting with Regis President Salvador Aceves, Ed.D., and Porter-Billups Leadership Academy students on our Northwest Denver Campus today! #copolitics #denver #edcolo #ThisIsRegis #JesuitEducated
