The #Arkells are fundraising for healthy breakfast programs for #Toronto #publicschools through these baseball cap sales.
A GOOD STORY STARTS HERE
by Max Kerman from Arkells
"I started wearing this homemade hat for my mom, a retired TDSB special education teacher. Every day, she worked to create a safe and engaging place for kids often dealing with difficult circumstances in their lives. She made a difference — and gave parents the comfort of knowing their child was cared for.Now, I wear the hat for all teachers, in recognition of both the challenges they face and the dignity of the work they do.
Public education isn’t simple and doesn’t erase differences we bring into the classroom, but at its best, it asks us not to look away from them."

Before I keep going, I need to back up a little. There is an important part of our time living down south that I haven’t told you about yet. It was during those years that I began realizing just how much my son was struggling in school—and how hard I was going to have to fight to get him the help he needed. From an early age, my son struggled to learn how to read. But at the same time, he could sit down with an incredibly complicated Lego set and put the entire thing together. I could […]https://jessicabellrosewrites-vheos.wordpress.com/2026/10/06/advocate/

How do you explain that classroom games locking features behind subscriptions paid by parents isn't okay? At a basic level, it really puts a fine point on whose parents will pay a $10/month subscription. But also, elementary schools shouldn't really be in the business of forwarding profiteering. And, I have some doubts that exposing young kids to the patterns of "free-to-play" games is healthy. (1/?)

A few years ago, a colleague from the #green #schools movement said to me, "You can't do it all, Gamal." Although I agree, that doesn't mean that an #undemocratic #economy does not impact #education , #housing, #employment, #energy, #transportation, #healthcare, and #climate.
In 1983's A Nation at Risk, U.S. President #Reagan blamed public education for the apparent demise of the U.S. economy, as if low-wealth people were responsible for a #recession. 25 years later, President #Obama blamed teachers for the financial crisis of 2008, as if a profession where 75% of the #teachers are #women was somehow responsible for the irresponsible and unethical decisions of well-heeled men on #WallStreet. #classism , #racism #misogony.
Well before Reagan's anti-civic narrative, the U.S. had been – and continues to be – one of the wealthiest countries on the planet. And #students still attend #publicschools that are in disrepair, that are crowded, that induce #asthma through inadequate #AirQuality, that provide sugar-laden candy posing as #breakfast cereal, and that substitute asphalt #parking lots for lush, green #playgrounds.
So, what s the call to action? In short, whatever is good enough for #wealthy #children should be good enough for all children. #Makeitso.
Or is awareness enough, especially for a beleagured population chasing, or trying to hold on to, #middleclass ranking?
And/or do some #liberals vote against their own interests when a #political #candidate is deemed "too left?"

Save Our Schools Arizona wants volunteers to "adopt" one of 8 target legislative districts: pick one and stick with it through Nov. 3, knocking doors, driving other canvassers or phone banking from home.
The targets are LD2, LD4, LD9, LD13, LD16, LD17, LD23 and LD27.
The group's voucher reform measure was kept off the November ballot by the courts, so its focus is now on who sits in the Legislature.

The Clock Came Off the Wall
In the spring of 2018, schools in England started taking analog clocks down from the walls of their examination halls. The reason arrived in the education press without a trace of shame: teenagers sitting their exams could no longer read a dial, they grew anxious watching a circle that told them nothing, and the schools judged it kinder to remove the clock than to teach the child. A deputy leader of the head teachers' association explained that students were more accurate with digital displays. So the ladders went up, the hands came down, and an instrument that had governed rooms of learning for two centuries was carried to the storage closet as a courtesy to the people it once served. I have kept that ladder in my head ever since, because it shows the modern school system performing its signature move in a single gesture: confronted with an untaught skill, remove the evidence.

Financial Hell Is About to Break Loose in #American #Schools
Trump’s new #school funding, part of #OneBigBeautifulBill Act, will kick in January 2027. It’s going to create a financial tsunami for #publicschools. There’s no mystery to it: We already know what will happen, because the scheme is not new at all. It brings us back to the bad old days, to the failed and inadequate divided school budgets from before the Civil War, that modern #publicschool were designed to fix.

SOURCE: SOCIALPSYCHOLOGY.ORGTITLE: White House Scrubs Gender-Based Bullying From Civil Rights Survey
Source: PBS News Hour
The Trump administration this week quietly released an update to a major survey on civil rights in schools that removed all data related to nonbinary students or bullying based on gender identity. The numbers come from the Education Department's Civil Rights Data Collection, a survey of nearly every public school in the nation. The release this week covers the 2023-2024, when the survey included "nonbinary" as a gender category alongside male...
