The Texas House Public Education Committee was scheduled to meet on Tuesday to take up two high priority bills which would address school funding and the creation of a school voucher plan. But the meeting was canceled late Monday night.
Gov. Greg Abbott is resurfacing claims that public schools across the country are allowing students to act as “furries” in classrooms in his latest push to funnel taxpayer funds to private schools.

#Trump repeatedly called for the elimination of the #Education Department during his presidential campaign. On Wednesday he called it a "con job" & said he wants it closed. [says a guy who never went to a #PublicSchool ever]
About 100 probationary employees received termination letters on Wednesday at the #GSA, according to two people familiar with the firings.
There are ways to work around something like that and with communication you can work something out, and it’s not a huge issue.

NH #HB283 being heard in committee on Monday
Look at all the classes they want to remove from New Hampshire Public schools “adequate education” list.
Just look at everything they have crossed off that they don’t want to be taught at public school anymore.
Please oppose this. It’s in the house education and policy administration committee on Monday the 10th.

A proposal creating a voucher-like program where public funds could be used towards private schools was passed by the Texas Senate Wednesday, just days after Gov. Greg Abbott made it an emergency item for the current legislative session.
The motivation for the Christian Nationalists can be cruelty and control, but sometimes it’s just for $$$.
Keep an eye out for the rebranding of abstinence only sex ed. Apparently NH has not taken funding from those who provide funding for this grift. But they could, and I don’t know what the other states are doing.
“But even without federal funding in New Hampshire, business is still booming for Joneen Mackenzie. Today, her SRA education program is in 47 states, including New Hampshire. “
We're committed to creating an #inclusive and #welcoming #environment. Shabbat shalom,

Is this the real reason “kids can’t read these days!”?
How does teaching them to guess which word it is teach them how to read words they have never seen before? This doesn’t even make sense. Is this why my friend’s kid got diagnosed with dyslexia?
This is the #DisintegrationChecklist. #TheChecklist of what we can expect to lose in the next four years. That makes it a tool for gauging the progress of loss. 43 items. A grim countdown score in the form of a simple number: how many are still left? That is the #DisintegrationScore. 43... for now.

Keeping track of this #DisintegrationChecklist, & the
#DisintegrationScore, is not a silly thing. I am not trying to #gamify the #apocalypse. It is a concrete measure, and if it is widely shared, it will make apparent even to the distracted the accelerating loss. A tool for those capable of caring.

Even voters in red states are realizing that school vouchers defund & destroy public schools.
“Election results show that vouchers are opposed by large majorities. But in some states, that sentiment has been overridden by the efforts of powerful governors and moneyed special interest groups.”

#RepublicanParty #mailer attacked #TedCruz’s opponent #ColinAllred for allowing a #trans #girl to compete in #girls #sports. As usual, their #hateful #falseclaims were based on #lies.
#Trans #Boy #MackBeggs fought to #compete with #boys but was forced to wrestle #girls due to the #gendermarker on his #birthcertificate, enforced by transphobic officials from the #TexasUniversityInterscholasticLeague, which oversees #publicschool #sports in the state.
Here's the live steam for tonight's school board meeting. Lots of public comment against this school closure plan.
