Teachers who sexually abuse children may, on average, have as many as 73 victims and be transferred to three other school districts before being fired. Even worse, teacher unions protect these predators through collective bargaining and nondisclosure agreements. Learn more in DFI's report, "Catching the Trash," by Paul Zimmerman.

Terrible student behavior is driving teachers to quit. DFI's @AngelaLMorabito explains how learning cannot happen in dangerous classrooms.
Texas is cracking down on student behavior that rises to the level of criminal activity. Referring students for prosecution isn't the first line of defense, @AngelaLMorabito explains, but it's necessary when students have ignored or refused other interventions.

What Education Freedom Tax Credit implementation actions should states, scholarship granting organizations (SGOs), and donors take between now and the end of the year?
Ashling Preston with @SchoolChoiceNow says:
▪️ Governors must opt in by 1/1/27 so students in their states can receive scholarships next year. The Treasury Department's temporary regulations clarify "exactly what the states need to do to opt in."
▪️Governors' offices should establish an EFTC point person and start identifying SGOs. The deadline for states to submit SGO lists to Treasury is 2/15/27.
▪️ With Treasury's proposed rule answering a lot of operational questions, it is time for SGOs to metabolize their responsibilities and build them into their business practices.
▪️ Taxpayers can start identifying where they want to donate.
▪️ Everyone can go to regulations.gov to submit comments before the December 1 deadline.
