Five of the Top Ten Public Schools in NJ Are Charters: In math, 5 of the top 10 highest performing districts are public charter schools, despite serving less than 5% of public school students. In ELA, 2 of top 10 are public charters. njedreport.com/five-of-the-to…
Pretty shameful that the Republicans have a $1.3bil school spending plan without a pretense of a way to pay for it. Also, basing state aid on spending vs Adequacy rewards districts for keeping taxes low and penalizes districts for accepting higher taxes. njedreport.com/school-leaders…

FYI... NJ's enrollment 2022-23, grade by grade. There is a rebound from 2021-22, but the trendline of smaller grades in the foreseeable future is unmistakable. #njpopulation #njdemographics
"Never forget the 7th of October. That will happen not one more time, not five more times, not 10...100…1000…10,000...The 7th of October is going to be every day for you." Protestors screamed this at two Jewish @Columbia students right outside campus gates tonight.
FYI... county-by-county births data, 2012 to 2022. #NJdemographics #NJpopulation
This is the wrong debate. MLK had more strategic sense in one finger than most of today's activists have in total. He was deliberate about picking symbols, applying pressure, driving change. Randomly blocking airports or bridges, damaging art, attacking senators, just theater.
"The survey results further showed broad bi-partisan support for public school choice and offered a clear path forward in addressing voters’ concerns: Democratic leaders need to embrace improved access to public school options."

So frustrating & predictable, the fact that COVID stimulus funds would dry up and people would claim that the resulting curbs/layoffs were “cuts” to education. Look at the response to the original post here, vs the @necs correction.
God the layers of misinformation here... The city is putting $514m to replace stimulus funds. Stim funds run out at the end of this year. That isn't a cut. It was built into stim funding. It is not a restoration either, as nothing was taken away. This is massive, new $$$.

Antisemitism is protean. Whatever you hate, you can transfer to the Jew. Today colonial-settlerism is the evil of choice, so Jews are colonial settlers. Nazism is a perennial hatred, so Jews are Nazis. If you hate communism, Jews are communists, if you hate Capitalism, Jews…
@Paul__Bruno Economists understand how weak the correlation is between income and SAT scores and that other factors might account for what correlation exists other than test prep, but people who education schools are ideologues, for whom contrary data means nothing. @rpondiscio
