Excited to see this progress in Alabama as they consider modernizing public school funding to better fit needs of students al.com/news/2024/04/a…
Yesterday the Education - Trust TN released this letter, signed by 500+ Tennesseans, in opposition to arming teachers in TN. It's more important than ever to stay engaged, and to lean in during election season. Read the full statement here: edtrust.org/p/63257
Teach Plus MS wants to #FundSouthernSchools! Check out this side-by-side comparison of MAEP & INSPIRE by @EdTrust. Of note: INSPIRE would increase funding for low-income students with a poverty weight which would be one of the highest in the region. fundsouthernschools.org/wp-content/upl…
Excited to see three new tools from @EdTrust in our Family Engagement Hub - worth a look for school and district leaders. @NAFSCE edtrust.org/p/63139
“Ultimately, the INSPIRE Act is an important step forward for MS. It levels the playing field for districts that serve highest needs students & empowers educators to weigh in on how the state funds schools.” Thank you, @ginipupo, for your support & for this excellent editorial!

“This is a winning proposition for the students of Mississippi, and ultimately, they must be our North Star” Powerful piece in today’s @clarionledger by @ginipupo who helped usher in Tennessee’s similarly consequential reform in 2022. clarionledger.com/story/opinion/…
Mississippi is on the cusp of passing a major education funding reform bill. I wrote a piece for the @clarionledger about why TN is rooting for them - and their students: clarionledger.com/story/opinion/…

Our fellow, Jordan Mareno, wrote about challenges with the Better FAFSA and drastic drops in FAFSA submissions in TN. TN's rate is 35 pp below this time last year, with largest declines in districts with high concentrations of minority students. Read on: edtrust.org/p/63098
TOMORROW: Tune in for @CBSMornings, where @Wil_EdTrust, EdTrust’s senior vp, will discuss all things #FAFSA including ongoing problems, workarounds, & equity issues that have emerged from the roll out of #BetterFAFSA.

Please take a minute to read our statement we released today that outlines our opposition to the voucher bills moving in the TN Legislature. The Education Trust - Tennessee issued the following statement regarding bills HB1183/SB503: edtrust.org/p/59926

Did you know it's the 70th anniversary of Brown v. Board of Education? Join me on April 4th where @NAACP_LDF, @BrownsPromise, and @ColumbiaLaw will look back and look ahead and the implications of segregation on ed equity today. Register here: ctt.ec/yiZ1a+
Thx to Nashville parent Becca Dryden’s for her powerful op-ed today: Tennessee lawmakers want to ban Pride flags, but not Nazi ones. This doesn't make sense. @Tennessean tennessean.com/story/opinion/…
🚨Action Alert 🚨 Sign on to oppose HB1632 / SB1858. bit.ly/sb1858
🚨Action Alert 🚨Sign on to oppose HB1948 / SB2350. This bill proposes to ban all diversity, equity, and inclusion offices and personnel at public institutions of higher education. bit.ly/tn-hb1948
This is from Senate (SB0503/HB1183) - the voucher bill in TN. @SchoolChoiceNow spent years hosting info meetings at Latino churches & convincing pastors that ESAs were for them. This language is a betrayal to the community & deliberately menacing. 1 of 100 problems w/ vouchers.

It is an honor to be friends and uplift this great friend of mine. This is the first time I’ve seen digital campaigning targeted to our rural Latino/a/x community in the south. Folks like @VoteLuisMata are what ten year old Latino kids in rural Tennessee see the future as.

Yay new funding formula!
HB 4130 (MS Student Funding Formula) has passed the Senate and it headed to the Governor’s desk. If signed, it will replace MAEP with a weighted student funding formula.
Join us in celebrating four outstanding @ScarlettFndt Scholarship recipients! Congrats to Christian Berber, Kicharlo Amelia Cottrell, Arian Mireles-Ramirez, and Traivon Webb from the @MarthaOBryanCtr!🎉SFF is proud to support their journey towards excellence! 🌟 #ScarlettScholars
Beautiful weather for the #RnRNashville! If you spot @AlexApple_, cheer him on!
Mississippi passes a new, more equitable funding formula! The formula, formerly known as INSPIRE, just passed the Senate and now will head to the Governor.
HB 4130 aka the “Mississippi School Funding Formula” aka historic levels of public education funding allocated through an equitable formula that prioritizes low-income students has PASSED the Senate. A huge thank you to everyone involved in passing this historic legislation.

Here are important election dates to add to your calendar.
HB 4130, the “Mississippi School Funding Formula” has just been passed out of the Senate Education Committee. Next Stop: Senate Floor
A new school funding bill has passed the House. It would establish a weighted student formula that includes an “objective formula” for calculating the base. Base for “MS Student Funding Formula” would be set at $6,695.34 (INSPIRE base was $6,650).
Normally I’m not too excited to work on a Saturday. But today might just be the day we get historic levels of public education funding in Mississippi.
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
