The indictment is out: Only 22% of 12th graders proficient in math; Only 34% in reading, the lowest since 2005. 8th grade proficiency reported out in spring largely mirrors these trends. We need to rebuild the entire infrastructure. Start over. From scratch.
No, it us not screen time and the pandemic that would cause a 17 year old to have a dramatic drop in reading skills. It’s bad education. 12th graders were already only 37% proficient in 2019.

🎂32 years may feel like a long run for a “new” organization - but it’s barely a breath in the long fight for freedom. We’re proud to have helped launch a movement. We’re prouder still to see new generations carrying it forward. @JeanneAllen #Forza

This is amazing!
I'm so excited that @mbateman is building a Montessori-based Alpha Timeback school. Working with the world's best educators to reimagine how kids should spend their first dozen years is the best part of this job.

Also I wrote this earlier this year, and during this Italian-American Heritage Month, it's only fitting to remind us why Italians celebrate him, too. https://t.co/bIAs7Umsnk

This man who practically defines our understanding of the spirit of discovery is worth rediscovering, and worth teaching, with both truth and objectivity.

This is SO true. "Consistency of appearance also strengthens a robust and focused academic environment, while simultaneously reducing disciplinary issues around bullying and behavioral matters." Learn more about what Ian Rowe does at Vertex from our recent podcast #Edreformin10
Ignore the haters @NewEmergingKing Our students at @VertexAcademies in the Bronx wear their beautiful blazers and ties as part of their daily uniform. Our students are proud to look sharp, and ready to learn. They can differentiate on the quality of what’s in their brain, not

You wrote and I heard. Local schools do have their typical operational funding intact, but special expenditures could be affected, particularly among charter schools that do not have district coffers to rely on. Here's one example: "At the current time, the federal shutdown has
Like most people, I’m no fan of government shutdowns—whatever the party in power. But the idea that local schools are or will be somehow suffering because of it is absurd. They’re sitting on millions of unspent dollars. If budgets feel tight, they should do what the rest of us

I have to admit. It’s taken a while for him to grow on me, but I kinda like this guy. He’s willing to put partisanship aside when it really matters
I congratulate @POTUS on this historic peace plan that releases all the hostages. Now, enduring peace in the region is possible. Our parties are different but we have a shared ironclad commitment to Israel and its people.

Kirsten’s incredible depth and knowledge is a great asset to the @usedgov and the President’s mission.
Congratulations to Superintendent @KirstenBaesler on her confirmation as Assistant Secretary for @usedgov. Her leadership in North Dakota and as a @Hunt_Institute Hunt-Kean Fellow has made a lasting impact, and I’m confident she’ll continue to champion students and educators

Let’s start at the top - with the schools. Failing, unsafe and union controlled without any accountability for the $25K per student a year- not including infrastructure and facilities. And they wonder where chaos comes from!?
