I don’t believe demonizing public schools or public school teachers is an effective strategy to gain school choice support. There are more positive ways to win converts. But what do I know? I’m old. :)
@MichaelPetrilli @MrDanielBuck Any good teacher in a public school will tell you that Chromebooks should be more than curtailed. We should go back to pencil and paper for all student work.

@DuellSays @MichaelPetrilli @jenalexanderct @JoanneSWeiss @CherylOldham @Dyrnwyn Note that teachers often get the data weeks if not months before it’s released publicly. I live in New Jersey which is notoriously late with public release but my kids’ teachers have the test results in August and use it for pre-school year planning.
@MichaelPetrilli @jenalexanderct @CharlesBarone @JoanneSWeiss @CherylOldham @Dyrnwyn But it's not testing for policy makers...the key part is testing for instructional purposes. That should be emphasized.
What kind of nation would be if we treated our precious college-goers like run-of-the-mill deadbeats?

Likewise, we don't educate migrant children because they are American, but because we are American.

Well said, my friend @MichaelPetrilli
The right response should be inspired by the late Cardinal James Hickey, in reference to Catholic schools serving low-income students regardless of their faith: "We don't educate these children because they are Catholic, but because we are Catholic."
Thanks for the shout out to the "total hack job" study on how many new educator positions were created by ESSER funding (i.e., positions that we estimate wouldn't exist in the absence of ESSER). Here's a link to that @caldercenter study: caldercenter.org/publications/e… 2/2
