Instead of retreating from school choice programs, policy makers should embrace efforts to expand education options for families as fiscally responsible and educationally sound policy for the future, writes @mlueken2.

Very nice piece by @KevinMahnken at The 74 about how the COVID pandemic accelerated #SchoolChoice across the nation.
New today: For my entry in @the74's five-year COVID retrospective series, I looked at how the pandemic led to a leap forward for school choice that few could have imagined in 2019

My latest at Informed Choice:. Policymakers should consider the supply side and LR effects. That means programs with stability, sufficient funding to attract new providers, and clearing away unnecessary regulatory barriers that deter school startups.

From: @annaegalite :."Innovations in school choice need not compromise our societal commitment to educating all students. That’s an important shared value. Govt has a useful and necessary role to play in funding and regulating education, but there’s room for more flexibility. ".

What a beautiful rendition of this John Denver classic. Finger picking the steel guitar gives this piece a rich sound and complements the vocals nicely. Lovely.
I have gotten hundreds of messages asking for a cover of Country Roads. We filmed this over the summer and I forgot about it with all the insanity during tour. It's not much but I hope you enjoy it! Filmed on the Bluestone River in Mercer County WV.

Nice article by @shulsie, who argues that #schoolchoice isn’t an entitlement, it’s entitlement reform. 1/2 As https://www.realcleareducation.com/articles/2024/11/19/school_choice_is_not_entitlement_its_entitlement_reform_1073265.html.
