So close to my first bestball tournament win but 2nd place feels pretty sweet too. First year really putting a lot of time and energy into bestball and it paid off. Thanks to @PatKerrane @adamlevitan @2Hats1Mike @evansilva and others for all the invaluable content along the way

“We need to focus a lot less on telling students to get involved and giving them basic trivia about how the government works, and shift toward a deeper exploration of what it means to be a citizen in a democracy, and what norms, values, and dispositions help us hold this

Teachers Value 'Patriotic' Education More Than Most Americans https://t.co/9R3KyqjCky

"For many Americans—especially young people—this disenchantment and loss of pride may not stem from disdain for America and its ideals but from frustration that our nation increasingly fails to live up to those ideals."

A similar pattern emerges regarding instruction on the Constitution and its core values, with teachers seven points more likely than both the general public and school parents to emphasize teaching the topic

"62% of teachers express that it is "very" or "extremely" important for schools to teach that the United States is a fundamentally good country, more than the general public (55%) and parents (59%)." @BrianKisida @shulsie @g_ritt @edchoice

I love it when data shatter education myths! My former @ua_edreform students & colleagues often are the myth-busters, as here: "our nationally representative survey reveals that parents, the general public, & teachers largely agree that schools should teach about the Constitution

We defined the building blocks of that as truly universal eligibility, usage, and funding. EdChoice staffers Colyn Ritter and Ed Tarnowski co-authored an Education Next piece about how the school choice movement should set its sights on universal funding. https://t.co/v03Nvr1OhE

Really good post today from @colynritter24, highlghting five states and what they do well when reporting school choice program information and data.

Enjoyed working with the brilliant @edtarnowski on this piece for @EducationNext How many “universal” private school choice programs are truly universal—with reliable, steady funding for any K–12 student who opts in? https://t.co/0xScdFFRMi @edchoice

“The most successful education choice programs are backed by steady, reliable funding sources..” Great piece by @edtarnowski @colynritter24 @edchoice Looking at you, Louisiana 👀 #lagov #lalege https://t.co/PLfaJSKRkA

For Harvard Kennedy School's @EducationNext, @colynritter24 and I detail why many school choice programs thought of as "universal" actually fall short. If all students can apply but just 2% of a student population is funded, is that truly universal? Not yet, we argue.

A new piece by @colynritter24 and I. We highlight the main points of the new Arkansas EFA report and document how moving forward, quality reporting ensures school choice programs are implemented effectively. @FlowTap1 @AlisonHeapeJohn @jbmcgee @RobertEnlow @edchoice @pauldiperna

Over the moon to have the great @DaionDaniels contribute to Informed Choice for the first time. He has a great piece, coauthored with @colynritter24, breaking down the new report on Arkansas' EFA program. (link below ⬇️)

Nearly one in three Republicans (and 61% of independents) believe Trump is using his office to enrich himself.

This is a veeeeerry interesting graph from my colleague @colynritter24's piece today (link below)

For the 9th year in a row, education savings accounts remain the most popular school choice polices among parents. Programs with universal eligibility win out. Three-fourths of Americans support making ESAs available to all students, not just some. (Source: 2025 Schooling in

Arkansas is as a national leader in the school choice movement, the head of the state's Educational Freedom Accounts program said Thursday, citing the state's #3 ranking in the @edchoice Friedman Index. @JSnyderAR reports in @ArkansasOnline.
