40% of Chicago Teachers Are Chronically Absent. Those Gaps Carry Real Costs www.the74million.org/article/40-o...

"Across the state, 34% of teachers missed 10 or more days. Illinois is one of the few states that track data like this, but there’s reason to think attendance is a problem nationwide.
40% of Chicago Teachers Are Chronically Absent. Those Gaps Carry Real Costs
Aldeman: Nationwide, educator attendance has dropped since COVID. It could be a symptom of employee dissatisfaction, or of larger problems in schools.

Facts: US #homeschooling has a rich history of academic research on achievement outcomes, but a good portion of it is flawed by design and self-selection bias. You cannot trust the results.

Facts: home educated children are on average, one year ahead of their school based peers; more likely to read a book and more likely to understand politics...less likely to be unemployed as young adults and less likely to commit a crime in their teens. Home education works!

IOW, by basically abolishing #ESOL program funding & support, Trump et al make it clear they do not support the assimilation of even documented US immigrants.

They understand that democracy depends on people knowing what’s occurring around them and having the capacity to deliberate critically about it.Trump is only the frontman in this attack on the American mind. 14/22

The US Dept of Education is now running a homeschool blog. I wonder how many sycophants they have lined up to spew idealistic visons of how groovy homeschooling can work for some families - rather than hire experienced voices to tell the balanced truth? #EduSky #EduPolicy

For Indigenous Education Month, #TDSB staff from local Math, Science, and Technology (MST) programs learned how Cherokee numerals can help enrich Grade 9 math. Gratitude to the Urban Indigenous Education Centre for partnering.

Teachers standing and working in groups on whiteboards. Text says: Use these clues to determine the Cherokee numerals from 1 to 10. A list of 10 clues with arithmetic facts are shown in Cherokee numerals. Text says: Fill in the blanks of this pattern. The pattern involves a series of Cherokee numerals and four blanks.

About a year ago, I got a call from a homeschool family who wanted to know how they could get an IEP in order to get on the AW waitlist. I explained that MD homeschoolers are ineligible for an IEP *but* they did not need one just to be placed on /1 #EduPolicy #EduSky

The rich are literally sucking the earth dry with their greed. Just say NO to school vouchers.

#EduSky #K12 #homeschool #SchoolChoice #EduPolicy
Yet in a lesson for these other states, Arizona’s voucher experiment has since precipitated a budget meltdown. The state this year faced a $1.4 billion budget shortfall, much of which was a result of the new voucher spending, according to the Grand Canyon Institute, a local nonpartisan fiscal and economic policy think tank. Last fiscal year alone, the price tag of universal vouchers in Arizona skyrocketed from an original official estimate of just under $65 million to roughly $332 million, the Grand Canyon analysis found; another $429 million in costs is expected this year. Among the funding slashed: $333 million for water infrastructure projects, in a state where water scarcity will shape the future, and tens of millions of dollars for highway expansions and repairs in congested areas of one of the nation’s fastest-growing metropolises — Phoenix and its suburbs. Also nixed were improvements to the air conditioning in state prisons, where temperatures can soar above 100 degrees. Arizona’s community colleges, too, are seeing their budgets cut by $54 million. Still, Arizona-style universal school voucher programs — available to all, including the wealthiest parents — continue to sweep the nation, from Florida to Utah.

You can see this in how edupolicy broke reading education for decades because it decided to teach reading based on how intelligentsia kids who loved reading for its own sake learned how to read vs. what the median student needed to build up that critical skillset.
