Before midnight tonight, ET folks can still object to the Trump administration's effort to make anyone who contracts with the federal government certify they will abide by the Trump administration's misinterpretation of civil rights law. youthlaw.org

More attention needs to be given to the lack of adequate funding for K-12 public education, as well as the demise of any federal accountability. Weird to discuss reauthorization of ESSA when federal accountability currently being destroyed and federal funding for schools cut!

Governor Stitt just granted clemency to Tremane Wood! I'm so grateful to all who spoke up on his behalf, and to know that it mattered! I hope to have an opportunity at NCYL 2 work with Tremane and others to raise awareness of the often overlooked needs of traumatized youth!

Here, Alton Carter, author of The Boy Who Carried Bricks, says the OK public schools neglected Tremane's needs. He knows, because he worked at the middle school Tremane attended, and feels he and others could have and should have done more.

NCYL's @losendan's research into Tremane's treatment indicated that in 6th grade, the school system suspected he had a disability, but didn't evaluate him. If they had, he likely would've received therapeutic responses instead of harsh discipline.

I interviewed Alton Carter, who was involved with Tremane Wood's discipline in grade 6. He says they failed Tremane Wood. Educators knew he was abused, knew brother Jake was dangerous, yet pushed Tremane out 4 minor misconduct. Ask Governor Stitt to grant Tremane Wood Clemency.

Thank you @losendan & colleagues. The alarming rise of youth homelessness & foster placements across the country AND the experience of the children with no voice & no advocates needs more attention. We cannot look away, we must run towards them. Your data is so important!

Ramon Flores released our report covering school discipline in California with the most recent data and trends for every district going back 7 years. Some shockingly high rates for students experiencing homelessness and those in the foster system. youthlaw.org/resources/harm…

Thanks to Jenny for posting. New report on CA school discipline coming out today. Some shocking data on the exclusion of youth in the foster system and those experiencing homelessness. However, some districts are making real progress.
Jenny G. Rankin, PhD@JennyGRankin

With Florida's new law allowing corporal punishment in schools to only happen with parental consent, many people are realizing for the 1st time that it's legal at many schools for educators to hit children.😱 Years ago @UCLA's @LosenDan testified before Congress on this problem. Here are his insights & research in a @PsychToday interview (including WHAT WE CAN DO ABOUT IT): psychologytoday.com/us/blog/much-m… #TellEWA

🚨 The Senate budget bill puts immigrant children in grave danger. It guts key protections, allows indefinite family detention in unlicensed facilities, and increases children’s risk of abuse, and exploitation. 📢 Tell Congress: NO on the budget bill. youthlaw.org/voteno

We hope advocates from across the country can put this new Opportunity to Learn Dashboard to good use. In addition, see the resources page 4 instructions on how 2 file a state records request for more recent school data from 2023-2024. Folks should file requests this month.

Every student deserves a fair chance to succeed, but not all students have the same access to learning opportunities. That’s why NCYL partnered with @SchottFound to launch opportunitytolearn.info, a first-of-its-kind resource that analyzes education equity. Explore the data now.
