    The Trump Administration’s Head Start Overhaul Explained (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    The Trump administration recently proposed a sweeping overhaul of the federal Head Start program, eliminating over 100 pages of federal regulations covering everything from playground mulch depth to class-size-to-staff ratios. While some have called it a long-overdue deregulation of an early childhood program buried in federal requirements, other early childhood advocates are concerned that the reforms could undermine the future quality of the program. Are their concerns valid? What is the admin

    Pedagogy of the Progressives: A Review of Syllabi from Graduate Schools of Education (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Graduate schools of education (GSEs) are among the most influential institutions in American K–12 schooling. They prepare teachers, train school leaders, and shape and disseminate the ideas that hold sway in the educational system. Yet despite these institutions’ influence, there is little evidence that attendance at such an institution does much to improve teacher quality.

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    What strikes you first as you approach the Cory Ruiz Autonomous Zone in Madison, Wisconsin is the smell: weed, excrement and urine. Protesters set up this encampment after police officers shot and killed Corey Ruiz July 22nd. Gubernatorial candidate and wannabe-Mamdani Francesca Hong called the shooting an execution. In her prepared statement, she fails to mention that Ruiz was allegedly searching for cars to steal, had eight prior convictions of resisting arrest and injuring officers, and pulle

    Promising State Policies to Improve School Behavior (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Last month, the Long Beach Post reported on teachers who were being hit, bitten, kicked, headbutted, and bruised. One student struck a teacher so hard that he sent her to the emergency room and permanently altered her vision. The number of severe workers’ comp claims in Long Beach Unified School District (LBUSD) is increasing year after year. LBUSD is no outlier; it parallels a broader trend. In a recent survey from Education Week, the majority of teachers report behavior worsening over the past
