The Don Evans Family Managing Director of Opportunity and Democracy of the Bush Institute, @annewicks , argues that pluralism is the “messy, sometimes bruising, central tenet of U.S. democracy” and provides the kind of friction our best leaders use to sharpen their decision-making.

@cinqaseptnyc I have emailed you many times about a customer service issue - no one responds. Is there a number to call?

Last week, I had the pleasure of speaking with Salim Asrawi, Co-Founder and President of @texasdebrazil. While we sadly weren’t at the delicious Brazilian steakhouse, we were at the @TheBushCenter Forum on Leadership, discussing our journeys immigrating to the United States and what we've been fortunate to do with our time here. Thank you, Salim, and our wonderful moderator, @annewicks, for such a meaningful and thoughtful conversation.

Texas once was on track with proven reading instruction. Now, though, my colleague @annewicks and I make the case why it should learn from states like Mississippi and Colorado that are basing their instruction on scientifically backed strategies. bushcenter.org/publications/t…

Instructive article by @annewicks & @Bill_McKenzie on Texas’s efforts to adopt the science of reading. They highlight data from our June report showing that < ⅓ of Texas teacher prep programs adequately cover scientifically based reading instruction. bit.ly/3RsuV84

The Fountas and Pinnell Benchmark Assessment System caught only 31% of the struggling readers. Burns called that level of accuracy "shocking," saying it was "quite literally the lowest I've ever seen." apmreports.org/story/2023/12/…

“Rather than continuing to work together to help all children meet high standards, too many state leaders have settled for moving the goalposts, lowering the standards, and pretending that everything [is] okay. It isn’t.” @AimeeGuidera via @The74 the74million.org/article/closin… @CRPE_edu

The MS reading story: steadfast leadership + policy with both accountability and support + research based instruction = kids win. It’s an honor to tell it in this @TheBushCenter Catalyst issue about policy that actually works. @kymyona_burk, #DrCareyWright, & team amaze me!

Mississippi's success shows that, if taught properly, all kids can succeed – and that change is possible even in big, bureaucratic systems. “The ability to read becomes the ability to learn, to solve problems, to work – and, ultimately, to vote.” — @annewicks Read more #catalystideas in the latest issue of The Catalyst: bushcenter.org/catalyst/the-f…
