More than 90% of our nation's children attend regular public schools. 95% of parents love their community's public schools. These are the schools that should be getting our support. Not charters. #TBATs #SupportPublicSchools @BadassTeachersA
Banning books but not assault rifles. Doesn't make sense.

Arizona's Voucher Law is a case of take the money & run. Parents can spend their school tax dollars however they want. No record keeping or accountability. Results are bad. #TBATs news.yahoo.com/arizonas-univ… @AlabamaBATs @MemphisbatBa @WVBats @MississippiBAT @AlabamaBATs
The Bad Apple Award is for the worst of the worst. Take a look at why they were chosen:

Don't ruin it with scripted lessons & constant standardized testing. But most of all, don't ruin it by making guns more important than kid's lives. #TBATs @WVBats @MemphisbatBa @GeorgiaBATs2 @NoCarolinaBATs @FLBATsA @SoCarolinaBATs @MississippiBAT
So unfair that Voucher/Charter schools get the same $$$ per child but choose the cheapest kids to educate. They don't use the extra $$$ on kids. They pocket the difference. #TBATs

School Choice is NO Choice. #StopVouchers #StopESA
Appalling how gun deaths went up every time Kentucky relaxed gun laws. Take a look. #TBATs @BadassTeachersA
Kentucky has some of the least restrictive state gun laws, and some of the highest firearm death rates, in the nation cnn.it/3zTpypS
One vote kept Gloria Johnson from being expelled. It was Justin Pearson's vote right before he was vote out. But, she didn't let the #TNLeg off the hook, she said that the color of their skin was a big part of why Justin Jones & Justin Pearson were removed. #TBATs @MemphisbatBa
The sky's the limit. #TBATs #WomensHistoryMonth

Isn't this the truth! I bet you can think of plenty of "less important" things that should be taken off the list! #TBATs .@VirginiaBATs .@MemphisbatBa .@FLBATsA .@NoCarolinaBATs .@SoCarolinaBATs .@GeorgiaBATs2 #TeacherLife #RespectOurTime
Whether it's a bubble sheet or a computer screen, if all you're interested in are scores on standardized tests, you've missed what schools should be all about. #TBATs .@MemphisbatBa .@FLBATsA .@NoCarolinaBATs .@GeorgiaBATs2 .@AlabamaBATs .@SoCarolinaBATs .@ArkansasBATsA
We can't compare one school's test scores against another unless we look at how many resources they are given. #FairFunding #TBATs .@FLBATsA .@MississippiBAT .@GeorgiaBATs2 .@AlabamaBATs .@MemphisbatBa
No Standardized Test can measure what's important about a person. #TBATs #StandardizedTesting
#TeachNotTest .@GeorgiaBATs2 .@FLBATsA .@MississippiBAT .@MemphisbatBa .@AlabamaBATs .@WVBats .@NoCarolinaBATs
Between Pre-Tests, Practice Tests & Post-Tests there's hardly enough time left over to actually teach anything. #TeachNotTest #TBATs .@MemphisbatBa .@FLBATsA .@GeorgiaBATs2 .@AlabamaBATs .@MississippiBAT #StandardizedTesting

Public Schools are for everyone. Private Schools are not.
