ICYMI: In @MPS_News not only is your child in danger of not being able to read, bad classroom management practices and ineffective teachers also leave your child susceptible to being bullied into taking drugs. We must GET OUT before it’s too late atlantablackstar.com/2024/05…

Native American students and families getting crapped on again by our public schools. It’s unacceptable, and it won’t change until we do something about it. Native students are 25% of the student body, imagine what it would do to their budget if all

Had a wonderful Saturday morning with parents from across the metro area. It’s always great when we gather for the benefit of our children.
The Minnesota Education Grant is a solution that will only become reality if we continue to organize and show up for our children.

Remember when schools were shut down for COVID? They saved hundreds of thousands of dollars by not being open. The question is, what did they did for our children with that money?
Schools aren’t underfunded, they are mismanaged.

When they start protesting because 80% of Black/Brown/Native children in the twin cities don’t read at grade level, and 50% not even at a basic level, you’ll know it’s real.

Great idea, but a lot parents can’t afford $250/week. Which is why we’re advocating for the Minnesota Education Grant, which grants parents who choose – 12k per child, and can be used for tutoring, ind school tuition, sped services and other pre-determined education expenses.

#BREAKING: Gov. Ron DeSantis signs legislation requiring the accurate teaching of communism's destructive history in schools
"100 million killed at the hands of communist regimes [..] Those are the facts, and those are what we need to be very clear-eyed about."
"This will add to the teaching standards [...] Adding a 'History of Communism in the United States,' as well as a review of the tactics used by [communist activists]."
"It's gonna give the students the truth about communism [...] We might as well tell them the truth while they're in our schools."
The bill was sponsored by Sen. @JayCollinsFL, Rep. Charles Brannan and @RepBuchanan
