- No matter how the lyrics change, it’s always the same tune and our answer is the same. NO to vouchers and privatization schemes. (By @pastors4OKkids)
- The adoption of a new instructional practice generally requires an initial step backwards in the areas of competence and control. (By @LYSNation)
- Asking teachers to do ‘one more thing’ and not removing anything else from their plate doesn’t help anyone…ESPECIALLY students! (By @FixingEducation)
- Want your school to move forward, faster? Give your teachers honest permission to NOT be perfect all the time. (By @LYSNation)
- Not only does (USDOE Sec) Betsy DeVos want to cut the Education Department funding, she wants to send part of its reduced budget to religious schools. She has a mission, and it does not include public school students. (By @DianeRavitch)
- If you don’t know where you are going, you might wind up someplace else. –Yogi Berra (By @CoachMotto)
