Taxpayer money going to private schools is about resegregation, not equity. Vouchers were born out of racism in response to integration mandates. #themoreyouknow 🌈

20 mostly white private academies, all founded in the 1960s and 1970s, brought in more than $20 million from North Carolina in the past three years alone.

None reflected the demographics of their communities. Few even came close.

❌ Arizona, get ready to vote NO on Prop 320! This is a deceitful attempt to gut K-12 public education funding by the Republican-led legislature – but voters will see through their tricks.

Help us get the word out NOW so voters are educated in November.

Today the US Senate invoked cloture on McMahon’s nomination to be Secretary of Ed. This means no more discussion & her confirmation vote is 3/3 at 5:30pm. Please contact your Senators & tell them to NOT vote for her; here’s why: all4ed.org/press_releas... @all4ed.bsky.social #edusky #protectpubliced

☎️ Linda McMahon is unqualified to be Secretary of Education. She’ll push Trump’s agenda to gut public schools, cut resources for students, and attack LGBTQ+ kids. Call your senator NOW and tell them to vote **NO** on her confirmation. Our schools deserve better! #ProtectPublicEd #StopMcMahon

Florida backed off slashing AP/IB/Dual Enrollment funding—for now.
But don’t be fooled: lawmakers quietly rewrote the rules to make future cuts easier, quieter, and harder to track.
Public school parents won Round 1. Stay ready for Round 2.

Public schools are the number one contributor to child welfare in the world. They require kids to be vaccinated, feed, and uncover neglect and abuse. Public schools have saved more children’s lives than any other organization on earth. Protecting public education is pro-child. #protectpubliced

Trump’s attack on the Department of Education is an attack on every studen/ teacher & parent who relies on public schools/ Defunding education doesn’t create opportunity, it destroys it. A nation that abandons its schools abandons its future
We can’t let this happen
Trump is a evil

Exactly. In some states, they’re dragging us in the opposite direction. Case in point, here in Florida, we are about to waste 15 million on making it easier for extremists to ban books.

#ProtectPublicEd
#FreedomToRead
To support some of Gov. Ron DeSantis' most prominent and controversial K-12 education laws, Florida has agreed to spend millions of dollars on a service it says is a tool for transparency. But free expression advocates warn it could be a vehicle for censorship. In a contract signed this September, the Florida Department of Education agreed to pay up to $15.6 million over four years to Maryland-based education technology company Trinity Education Group. The company has been tapped to develop a "statewide, centralized, easily accessible" system for people to review and even object to instructional materials and library books in Florida school districts. The state has already paid more than $3 million, according to a Monday payment listed in the state's online contract database. And some worry this tool could ramp up the already widespread targeting of materials in Florida's public schools. "With book bans running amuck in Florida, this partnership seems to open the door wider to facilitate greater suppression of library materials and classroom content," said Katie Blankenship, director of free expression group PEN America's Florida office, in a statement. "More often, these systems are meant not to serve actual parents interested in what their own children are learning but to provide a way for ideologically motivated actors, including those with no connection to the school, to comb through this data to hunt for material to which to object," she continued. A tool of transparency or censorship? PEN America Florida's Blankenship emphasized that "parents are important partners in their kid's education." But she accuses this tool of going beyond goals of transparency. "This platform is ripe for chilling the professional expertise of educators and librarians by expanding ways for parents and citizens to intervene in curricular and library decisions in K-12 schools," Blankenship said in her statement. Stephana Ferrell, co-founder and director of research and insight for the Florida Freedom to Read Project, put it this way: "This looks like a way to create statewide book banning." "This is a tool that serves the needs of a very stark parent minority," her group said in a social media post.
