Here’s proof various anti-public education groups pushing @GovBillLee’s privatization agenda grabbing taxpayer dollars from public schools are highly coordinated— They applied jointly for a big award 👇🏽🤔 💰

👀 WATCH: A Charter School Lobbyist Runs Away 🏃🏾
@GovBillLee’s @TNedu Commish @SchwinnTeach Has DEEP TIES to Charter Lobbyists privatizing public education — and @TennesseeCAN lobbyist @VictorJEvans did NOT want to talk about his parent company’s ties to Penny. 🏃🏾♂️#FollowTheMoney

Great news from Supreme Court. It leaves in tact a lower court holding that charter schools are state actors and, thus, must comply with the US Constitution. This is devastating news for those who think states can authorize religious charter schools. reuters.com/legal/us-supreme…

It's odd that RuCo Mayor Joe Carr, a long-time opponent of Common Core, invited Core-using Hillsdale to Rutherford -
And that invitation will cost taxpayers $7 million a year:

I find very little difference between most academic standards today. This is an excellent read. fordhaminstitute.org/nationa…
Well said: “You can’t say you’re against Common Core, but for Core Knowledge,” said JC Bowman, Executive Director of Professional Educators of Tennessee. “They’re both ideologically from the same place. They’re very interconnected.” tennesseelookout.com/2023/05…

As Rutherford County Faces Budget Deficit, School Board Grants Tax Money to Hillsdale Charter School tnedreport.com/2023/04/as-ru…
Students, parents, teachers and taxpayers in @JMCSchools should be proud. This is Superintendent and School Board leadership in action ⬇️
This evening, our board approved the Resolution to deny the American Classical Education - JM. As I previously shared, we have enough contracted services. Let's not start contracting out our students when we are making progress! #winning

Five proposed charter schools affiliated with controversial Michigan-based Hillsdale College would drain more than $17 million from Tennessee suburban and rural public schools during their first year of operation and $35 million at maximum enrollment

We appreciate TN’s best edu-news outlet detailing the facts about the negative fiscal impact of charter schools. Unlike @ChalkbeatTN, the @TNEdReport isn’t funded by charter special interests and tells the truth about how these low-performing privately run schools drain tax $$$.
