Something @Timodc just said on our livestream strikes me as entirely true: This man, this ICU nurse, was killed for the free exercise of his 1st and 2nd amendment rights.

In an alarming move, some @Wikipedia editors have declared that ADL, the world's leading authority on fighting antisemitism, isn't a reliable source on antisemitism. This effort is dangerous and could lead to widespread misinformation. Join us and act now: action.adl.org/a/wikipedia?so…

@lindseymburke @JasonBedrick They could help students, too, by giving them more teachers who deeply understand their subjects.

ROI for education majors is near-zero.
States could help aspiring teachers tremendously by prioritizing subject-matter expertise over getting certification through an ed school.

In Lodz, Poland, in 1937, Nat Lewin's father was told to, "Go to Palestine!" Today, protestors at @Columbia and elsewhere yell at Jewish students to, "Go back to Poland." The overt antisemitism, not to mention complete ignorance and lack of historical knowledge, is astounding.

This is great news, but the importance of the district-level data can't be overstated. The difference between the growth leaders drove in Caddo and how limited our recovery is here in EBR is staggering.

One footnote here: Louisiana says it hasn't formally opted in or out of the Summer EBT program yet. A new governor took office this month, so it sounds like the state held off on making a decision during the transition.

A new policy from the Biden administration will cut off certificate programs and for-profit colleges from federal money if their graduates are left with low wages or unaffordable loans.

A long-time criticism of charter schools is that their results don't beat district schools. But the average performance conflates 3 very different models. Deeper analysis of the new CREDO study shows that urban charters create very significant learning gains.
