Israeli communications minister Shlomo Karhi on Trump calling Hezbollah "very smart": It's "shameful that a man like that, a former U.S. president, abets propaganda and disseminates things that wound the spirit of Israel's fighters and its citizens." axios.com/2023/10/12/trump-h…

On Labor Day, take a moment to appreciate the workers who have helped make America what it is today. Their grit, determination, and hard work over decades have changed our country for the better. Today we also recognize the American labor movement that has fought tirelessly to improve the wages, benefits, and working conditions for people everywhere. I’m proud of the work they’ve done—and still do—to put the American dream within reach.

Earlier this week we opened the Wildcat Stock Exchange in Personal Finance! Students switched off between being buyers or sellers of Apple stock and were given different scenarios based on supply/demand. Who knew learning about investing could be so fun?! @D128Union @District128

The notion that it costs less to educate students with publicly funded private school vouchers than it does to educate them in traditional public schools ignores important realities that make voucher programs expensive, impractical and unsound. pfps.org/assets/uploads/CR_P…
