This may be the biggest piece of garbage ever written.
Absolutely zero accountability for the harm done to @apsupdate students. For the wrong decisions made. For the years of education lost. For the thousands of kids who never came back to school.

As a natonal thought leader, thanks #EdWeek for the chance to reflect on Covid-era leadership realities for Superintendents and educational leaders, our public schools, communities and the work we must focus on for our children: edweek.org/leadership/as-cov…

Also, only a weak “leader” and human turns off comments from the public they’re supposed to be working “in service of”.

This past week:
@rweingarten said she fought to open schools the whole time
Fauci said he had nothing to do with it and maybe schools were closed too long but not his daughter’s so maybe they weren’t really closed for so long!
And the White House said Biden made open schools his priority.
So why did they stay closed for a year and a half? Who did it? The kids? The parents? Someone did it. Who could it be? Someone caused this generational catastrophe. 🤔

How have they led @apsupdate BOE since appointed in Jan 2022?
Are they holding @DrLisaHerring accountable?

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.

@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:

She’s not wrong.
If schools clearly told parents their reading and math proficiency scores – if they put their 5-year trends on their website homepage and shared them at parent night – American parents would march in the streets for change.
