"Good schools" aren't fixed categories, and they don't come down only to funding, either. In fact, every school in America can improve with these two things. New from @BernerEd: discoursemagazine.com/p/pull-these-t…

@pschofie79 Well said. If we didn't have public 'school catchment areas' that reflect property prices, the liberal bourgeois virtue-signalling supporters of 'public schools' would switch to supporting vouchers and school choice within a week.
There's this weird thing where parents will move to a rich suburban district and then feel morally superior to anyone who sends their kid to private school, or even get angry at parents who do so. I don't get it. You deserve very little (no?) moral credit for this.

While I get why academics might view a four-year-old NBER paper as something that should be common knowledge, it isn’t. Indeed, it’s safe to say that few (if any) educators, advocates, or policymakers have read any of the stuff that my irate correspondents deemed widely known.

@douglasharris99 I'd like to thank @tomloveless99 and @JennBinis for encouraging me to engage directly. I love the way you write, Dr. Harris. It's clear. I appreciate you taking the time to engage with me earlier in the thread.
Every Republican and every single Democrat in the Mississippi House of Representatives just voted to pass a weighted student funding formula. Should the Senate follow, low income, ELL, and SpEd students will be meaningfully recognized in the way the state funds public schools.
House Bill 4130 has been introduced. The bill would create the “Mississippi Student Funding Formula” to provide funding mechanism for public schools. To read the bill, visit billstatus.ls.state.ms.us/2024/pdf/histo…. #msleg
“The only way we’re going to get better is to be honest about where we are and then we’re honest about the strategies we need to put in place,” said @MdPublicSchools new state superintendent of schools, Carey Wright. And parents agree. 🙌🏽 baltimoresun.com/2024/04/29/mar…
What if parents' preferences for schooling is only weakly connected to what they actually want for their children? Families have diff tastes for education but what if these are driven more by fads & faulty assumptions than knowledge of how schooling produces outcomes? 🧵
@aejochim @douglasharris99 @DuellSays Value for a consumer depends on personal preferences and context. So when you say “quality” the people defining that should be parents and it’s individualized. I’ve had the same school be amazing for one kid and horrid for another.

Where are our @ATXEnviroDems ?
Barton Creek Greenbelt Encampment The city of Austin says they can't clean this space because of endangered species. How is this helping the endangered species as it is.
We SHOULD be concerned abt educating these students & how state policy shapes their ed opps. We need more people asking hard qs & speaking out. But if you choose to engage, don't ignore the injustice these students & families experience in TPS. My SWD is not your political pawn!
I am a mom of a student identified with a disability. Before my daughter was identified, I too ignored these students' plight. I too assumed that IDEA worked as its authors intended. Then I came to understand the reality: the stigmatization, discrimination, and failure to serve.
But this ignores the large body of evidence that IDEA is failing SWD and their families. It turns out that a "right" to education in public schools may only add up to a seat at a desk, not the instruction and support the child needs to thrive.
As far as I can tell, no one researching and writing about public education can be bothered to consider the struggles of SWD - except when the issue of choice comes up. Opponents of choice point to protections in IDEA as evidence that TPS is better.
Did you know that public schools and districts routinely fail to comply with special education law and even when they do, compliance provides such a low benchmark that checking that box relegates students to educational backwaters?
Did you know that SWD are also routinely excluded from intra-district choice programs managed by districts? Or that many students are denied placement in gifted programs despite meeting the qualification standards based on the simple fact that the student had an IEP?
