American Federation of Teachers president Randi Weingarten used her power and influence to collude with the Biden Administration to keep schools closed. Our nation’s children suffered as a result. Time for accountability. nypost.com/2023/04/11/aft-bo…

🚨BREAKING🚨 @AFTunion may have exploited the well-being of America's children for political gain. @COVIDSelect invites @RWeingarten to testify on April 26 at 2pm about her role in promoting unscientific school closures. Accountability is coming: oversight.house.gov/release/…

While Supt Herring is throwing parties & parades to celebrate 68% of kids in the @apsupdate can’t read on grade level, @FCSSuptLooney is partnering with top colleges for his scholars. Maybe this will wake up 49k more signatures so @BOEAPS can finally see the results of failed smoke & mirrors leadership. @CommAPSProgress appenmedia.com/schools/aubur…
Let’s be clear. My parent choice vote as a Democrat isn’t about me. It’s about the families I hear from. Several petitions are out with parents highly upset with failing schools, racism, and accountability. change.org/p/we-are-a-united…

The entire tenure of her administration is concerning. Sign the petition demanding change here: chng.it/z7BZsrMj
Replying to @atlanta_press
This whole speech is cause for concern for those who view education as an important facet of youth development and not simply a means to create new workers for corporations.

We agree, and we don’t think these folks are should make any decision about closing/merging schools. They proved they can’t make sound decisions with the intervention plan. Even DeKalb knows better than to use Read180/Math180.

They are sharing what “can be done”? Shouldn’t they be sharing What They Are Doing and the data to support it. Everything is so future forward with this district. Students who can’t read need something NOW. @APSTransparency @CommAPSProgress

If schools want to make sure more kids can read better, it's not enough to change classroom instruction. Lots of kids are still going to need more than what a classroom teacher with 25 kids can provide. Don't cut one-on-one help.

Say it again for the people in the back! @BOEAPS and @DrLisaHerring which one is it - are you all in denial, don’t know, don’t care, or don’t know what to do? Our @apsupdate students deserve better and we will not stop until that happens. @CommAPSProgress @educator4ever88
If the fact that 65 percent of US students cannot read does not create a sense of urgency among school boards and superintendents, what will. People are either in denial, they don’t know, don’t care, or don’t know what to do.
