He can dish it out. But he can't take it. Psychological projection, much??? The entire @BetsyDeVos voucher program is a lie. About #txed schools, teachers, parents. And you. #txlege House won't fall for it. "You shall know the truth, and the truth shall set you free."
Hats off to @DFERmass. They really are good at keeping their #darkmoney dark and their political spending hidden from the public. Here's some of what we know: masspoliticsprofs.org/2023/05/22/dem… #mapoli #bospoli #MaEdu
I suggest you use it to explain why teachers should accept a raise that fails to meet inflation, along with a cut in health care. You guys have failed to persuade anyone not on @UFT payroll.
@palan57 This was the same guy who commissioned the Legislative Budget and Finance Committee to “study the effectiveness of standardized testing, including the Keystone Exams and SATs.” gadflyonthewallblog.com/2023/04/15/for…
Common Core isn't gone, it's just been renamed in state after state. Standardized Tests are still required & they're all based on Common Core standards. Time to dump the tests. #TeachNotTest #TBATs @SoDakotaBATs @Nodakbats @TxBats @NebraskaBATs @kansasbats

Quick thread on my new review, via @NEPCtweet, of a report on funding "portability" & school choice: nepc.colorado.edu/publication-an… One of the things we're hearing a lot from school choice advocates lately is "Fund students, not systems!" The implication is that we should just... 1/

The vast majority of families want a well funded PUBLIC school like middle class communities and higher have. With awesome extra curriculars and academics. But that’s not the “ChoiceTM” that you’re offering. It’s shitty charters and vouchers for kids already in private. GFY. Dick

We fund individuals over systems in health care & higher education. Does anyone actually think our health care & higher ed systems are more effective, efficient, accessible and FAIR than our k12 public schools?

@DamonRambo @pastors4txkids @marla_kilfoyle @NPEaction @carolburris @joshcowenMSU @DrDeMatt Vouchers have lost every state referendum, even in Florida, in 2012. They lost everywhere they were put to a vote. Everywhere! Betsy DeVos wants them. Charles Koch wants them. The Walton family (Walmart) wants them. Billionaires.

MUST WATCH — Students from Little Rock Central High School went to the State Capitol today to voice their opposition to #ArkansasLEARNS and its amendment. GOP Senator Jane English shut down and interrupted each of these civically-engaged students during the committee hearing.

@leeannjung Easy to say, harder to implement, and worrisome since many politicians and school reformers would like nothing more than to end special education protections. Do you understand the history of special ed and the controversy behind IDEA reauthorizations?
@DeAngelisCorey @willardgharris @Koenig4MO @DougRicheyMO @NickBSchroer My ZIP Code is 64468. Please direct me to a high school that will accept a voucher.
I was thrilled to get to be part of @inthesetimesmag's fantastic issue on the spread of the far right. The resistance to the right-wing effort to dismantle public schools is some of the most inspiring organizing out there. (& deserves much more attention) inthesetimes.com/article/far-ri…
This judge under stands what charter schools are better than 95% of the lawmakers who put them in place. @DianeRavitch @leoniehaimson
@PatrickRGibbons @carolburris There actually is a definition of common school: a school that accepts everyone. Charter schools choose their students. They are not common schools.
About time that Chicago & @NYCSchools moved away from a competitive system and towards an equitable one that guarantees a high quality public school in every neighborhood instead of Hunger Games.
CPS CEO Pedro Martinez wants families to say “I have this great neighborhood option in my neighborhood… It shouldn’t be a competition between schools, it should really be families, knowing that, ‘Hey, my child can walk to school and have a great option.’” chicago.suntimes.com/education/2023…
It's not happening @DeAngelisCorey #txlege #SchoolChoice
.@PerezJr of @politico embarrassed himself w/ his advice to Dems to abandon values & embrace school choice based on push polls. Sources were Dems who have pushed "choice" like DFER, some of whom are not even Dems. Weak reporting @DianeRavitch @leoniehaimson @valeriestrauss
Charter schools, which were originally proposed to be district-run, innovative public schools, have since morphed into national charter school chains, Christian nationalist schools, and facades for for-profit corporations. Read more progressive.org/public-schools… @alexwagner
Voucher lies abound. Scams depend on them. The biggest lie is that vouchers help poor kids. No. They don’t. They just subsidize the private ed of affluent ones. That’s why conservative Texans won’t have a voucher program. Now or ever. #txed #txlege @joshcowenMSU @DrDeMatt
@DeAngelisCorey @TheDemocrats Corey, you are trying to sell private schools to working class folks. The only people who are against unions are the wealthy, who would rather exploit workers with low wages, no worker protections, and crappy benefits. So you want teachers to be exploited by for-profit schools?
Why Should My Tax Dollars Go Toward Feeding Poor Kids? Shouldn’t That Be the Teachers’ Responsibility?
In other words, if what you know about school is based on direct experience and not what you hear from the media...
NEW: The conventional wisdom is that parents have grown increasingly furious with public schools. But it's actually people without school-age children who are particularly skeptical of public schools, multiple surveys show. chalkbeat.org/2023/7/25/2380…
Religious schools and private schools fail far more kids than public schools. Kids who use vouchers fall far behind their peers in public schools.
@DianeRavitch @jamestalarico Accepting them all is great. But they also fail way too many. We should be open to every solution to make sure kids aren’t failing. And status quo ain’t it.
I agree with @GovAbbott. There’s more work to do: 1. TX is 49th in teacher retirement benefits. 2. TX is 42nd in public education funding. 3. TX is 43rd in teacher pay 4. TX is 2nd in school shootings.
This year, I signed laws to get woke agendas out of Texas classrooms and restore parental rights in education. We made great progress, but there is more work to be done. Now is the time for school choice in Texas.
