Horrifying. The headline doesn't do the post justice. The headline in the @nytimes.com app reads, "Musk Team Announces Millions in Cuts to Education Dept. Amid Legal Pushback" (Hint: The majority of the cuts are to the research arm.) #edpolicy #education www.nytimes.com/2025/02/11/u...
There's a lot to unpack in the data from the most recent "Nation's Report Card." Here's a quick first look at some of the numbers. It is certainly worth noting that while COVID had significant impact, there are trends dating from before the pandemic that we can't ignore. www.npr.org/2025/01/29/n...
Great set of resources for educators, families, and caregivers working with young folks, especially those with first hand impacts and trauma related to the fires. (School hint: Focus on Social Emotional health, not standards and academics.)

This is kind of a cool data visualization shared in today's Marshall Memo. (Spoiler alert: very few people met online or in a breadline in the 30's.) youtu.be/_0gh-Nt9AnE?...
I have clarifying questions, bc it depends. During the day? Am I in the woods? Am I at the zoo? Animal rehab center? Do I study owls for a living? Am I an owl expert? Am I an owl? Am I a baby owl w siblings and two stay at home parents who have a lot of friends over?
As the great Gomer Pyle might quip, “surprise, surprise, surprise.”

Only just started this book, but already there's so much to learn (or, more aptly, unlearn). Highly recommend for folks working with youth, especially in areas of fitness and athletics. We can prevent harm when we understand how we cause it. #fitness #athletics #youth #lgbtq+ #QTBIPOC
As relevant question as we can be asking when some leaders are outright liars AND are celebrated by over half the populous. via Kappan #honesty #edusky #civics
So absurd. Maybe Hulk Hogan can serve under her alongside Rick Flair.
No joke y’all. “Linda McMahon Chosen to Be Education Secretary
Ms. McMahon, a former professional wrestling executive with little experience in education policy, has long been a Trump ally.”

Good question. Given our times, I wonder if the answers to that question might differ between genders.
Right back at you. Cheers.
This resonates w our two daughters — the election didn’t really matter to their male peers. But for them, bodily autonomy was very much on the ballot.

Old homeweek to you too! Hoping you are well.
I’m w you. Tolerance is such a low bar. Even acceptance falls a bit short. Embracing/celebrating differences (ones that don’t oppress others) feels closer to aspirational.
The Daily for the daily analysis. The Moth for driving w my daughters. Pod Save America when I want to live in a bubble I agree w. Whatever series Scene on Radio is producing.
