Now that the General Assembly has adjourned, I hope every TN resident takes time to analyze how their Reps and Senators voted on a variety of bills. Did they represent your community or private interest groups? Votes will matter this fall. Our communities depend on it.
Finally.
Honored to be at Paris Landing with AIMS Supts. What a conference!!! Closing session tomorrow and it’s going to be GOOD…Maximizing your Leadership Potential. Learning from each other.

American democracy depends on the competency of our citizens. When we began funding public education, policymakers hoped to unify a diverse population allowing students to find common ground. We wanted students to learn to respect others. How we can be successful in that…
Hey @MauryComms Parents & Employees, this is who @CepickyTn64 is. Not just someone that wants to throw your children’s schools in the trash, but a lying snake who tries to do it from the shadows.

Testing and Retention - you think it doesn’t impact kids? We have 3rd and 4th graders, who are high performers, in tears today as they take a test that is tied to retention. There is NO way that is best for our kids or our state. Our kids deserve better.
If Tennessee governor lee’s voucher deal is such good policy, then why is the legislature trying to sneak it through with attachments to the budget at the last minute? Good policy shouldn’t have to be hidden. It’s only bad policy that needs to be hidden from the public view.
The Voucher Bill sponsor said the quiet part out loud. Any Representative voting for this Voucher Bill does NOT support Public Schools and can NOT claim themselves a Fiscal Conservative. The two are mutually exclusive. Voters should remember and treat them accordingly.
Clinton City Schools is happy to offer a Boost Camp for rising Kindergarteners. See image for details. Use attached form to register. 5il.co/2ioa4
TN Rep. Scott Cepicky says @GovBillLee doesn't really care how many students get school vouchers: “All the governor wants to be say, the major words of ‘universal school choice.’ Because we allow everybody to apply for it, he can utter those words." newschannel5.com/news/newschann…
Studies have shown that those most dissatisfied with public schools have little or no interaction with them. Teachers don’t have the time (or inclination to “indoctrinate.” They are too busy going the extra mile every day. youtu.be/r-QTvfvg_ks
Wow! The first Blaze Drone Team member to pass the Federal Aviation Administration’s Recreational UAS Safety Test!! This means she is now certified to fly recreational drones outdoors in occupied and unoccupied air space. Congrats, Mya!!!

Teacher Leaders in @ClintonCity_CCS reflecting on various student discourse opportunities identified in their HQIM. They are in the business of giving ALL students access and opportunities to high quality instruction! @NIETteach @JohnsonKellyd
OAK RIDGE: “I am pleased our Anderson County elected officials have passed resolutions opposing this voucher legislation. But I find it disturbing our elected state officials @ltgovmcnally @RepRagan & Butler are ignoring their wishes to support bad bills.” oakridger.com/story/opinion/…
For Tennessee’s “school choice” debate, let’s try an experiment: Pick Tennessee’s most elite private school and its most economically disadvantaged school - and switch the students for a year (or more). Is it the school or the economic/home life that makes the real difference?
Congratulations to our very own, Abbey Kidwell, for winning the National Milken Award!!! We are so proud of you!!!

Another one bites the dust…. “TN Gov. Bill Lee conceded defeat Monday in his push to enact universal school vouchers this year, acknowledging there was not a ‘path forward’ after months of Republican infighting.” apnews.com/article/tennes…

School choice exists: you can move to a new school district, you can home school, or you can pay for your kids to go to private school. The government cannot be the solution to every problem.

Thank you Representative Warner!!!! He truly led this charge with action.
REPUBLICAN Rep. Todd Warner (R-Chapel Hill) on the demise of @GovBillLee’s private school vouchers scam for the year: “It’s a great day for Tennesseans. We can never turn our backs on public education.”
Just in case Sumner County folks weren’t aware, our (Republican) school board passed a resolution OPPOSING vouchers, but Johnny Garrett and William Lamberth are sponsoring the voucher bill. They’re not interested in what their constituents want. tennessean.com/story/news/loc…
