This week the board of directors celebrated their most recent birthday. Also this week, they finished pre-school, and the CMO finished her year in the teaching trenches, so we are shifting into a whole other gear here at the Institute. Let's see what there is to read.
First North Dakota teacher named Albert Einstein Fellow from West Fargo Schools, but denied leaveOnly fifteen educators get this recognition each year, but this teacher's district just sees a staffing problem--in other words, their problem.
Nancy Flanagan takes a look at what is actually necessary for a tutoring program to work (now that they're all the rage).
I suppose someone from a right-tilted school like Claremont McKenna College would be just the choice to dismantle the neo-liberal tech-loving reformster-plagued eduwonks of the Clinton administration. Lily Geismer has written the book, and Jan Resseger has the review for us here.
The indispensable Mercedes Schneider takes a look at the unsuccessful attempt to sell more guns and put them in schools.
Matt Barnum at Chalkbest looks at some numbers from the pandemic and concludes that child care workers were more likely to die from COVID than the average worker. There are tons of caveats here, but nobody else is even trying to run these numbers, and I consider Barnum the most trustworthy writer in the Chalkbeat stable.
Jose Luis Vilson writing at Word In Black about the need to improve the terrible retention numbers for Black educators.
Blue Cereal Education makes a case for the arts in education. #5 is my favorite.
TC Weber reports on more shenanigans in Tennessee, like the education commissioners happy talk bus tour.
From a district just up the road from me-- what if students headed for blue collar jobs had the same kind of fuss made over them as students signing letters of intent for college sports?
My old school. A student couldn't be at graduation, so my old boss took graduation to him.
