Wearing a Crown of Thorns, and flanked by two male torsos, Jayne Mansfield observes as I inflate a giant Valentine heart to decorate my Remedial Reading classroom. 1995. #valentine #valentinesday #class #classroom #publicschool #publicschools #publicschoolteacher #publicschoolteachers #publicschoolemployee #publicschool employees #holiday #holidays #teaching #teacher #teachers #education #publiceducation #protectpubliceducation #endcharterschools #charterschoolsareantiamerican #civics

Judeo-Christian :fozzie_wocka_wocka:
"Among the many #faiths practiced by millions of #Texas #students, a new statewide required #reading list that includes #biblical passages draws from just two traditions: #Protestant #Christianity and #Judaism.
Yet Texas #rabbis say #Jews had no role in shaping how #Judaism appears in the #curriculum, and they disagree with how the lone #Jewish text is presented. Rather than teaching about Judaism on its own terms, they argue, the lessons filter Jewish texts through a #Christian perspective.
The #readinglist, which is expected to go into effect in 2030, will have #publicschool students across the state reading passages from the #NewTestament and mostly Christian #translations of the #Hebrew Bible alongside #literary classics. Of the curriculum’s six #HebrewBible readings, just one uses a Jewish #translation."

💁🏻♀️ TIL: 📝📊 The #SAT was first administered to 8,000 students in June 1926, born from #WorldWarI #military I.Q. tests designed by #Princeton psychologist and eugenicist Carl Brigham.
Now taken by two million #students annually, fewer than 10% of U.S. #colleges require it for fall 2026 admissions, a shift accelerated by the #Covid #pandemic and long standing debates about what the test actually measures. The article traces the test’s #evolution from a tool that helped break into the old boys’ network of elite colleges to an #exam whose scores strongly correlate with family #income.

I used the 22-minute After School Special "THE HALLOWEEN THAT ALMOST WASN'T" starring Judd Hirsch and Mariette Hartley as a classroom Halloween treat every year during my career, following its release in 1979.

#Texas can require the #TenCommandments to be displayed in #PublicSchool #classrooms, a #US appeals court ruled Tuesday in a victory for #conservatives who have long sought to incorporate more #religion into schools.
It sets up a potential clash at #SCOTUS over the issue in the future.
The ultra conservative #5thCircuit Court of Appeals claimed in the decision that the #law did not violate either the #EstablishmentClause or the #FreeExerciseClause of the #FirstAmendment. -

While #Utah requires that #PublicSchool students have 2 doses of the measles, mumps & rubella #vaccine [#MMR], parents can opt out of those requirements for personal, religious or medical reasons. In the 2024-25 school year, about 11% of kindergartners had exemptions or were missing documentation to show they were vaccinated against #measles, up from about 7% before the Covid-19 pandemic. Vaccination rates need to be above about 95% to stem the spread of the #virus.

"Ownership of Time Is Learned Early"
With the advent of neoliberalism in the 1980s, the mission of public education has become more about preparing for life in the workforce rather than preparing for life fulfilled by freedom and happiness. The state shapes working class consciousness rather than the other way around. It's time to change that.

One of my public school students in 1977 at his Little League game. I hope some day gay people are more accepted as teachers.

My Halloween treat for many years was showing the kids Judd Hirsh's "The Halloween that Almost Wasn't," during our classroom party.

#Oakland CA #PublicSchool District Claims It Has Halved A $100M Budget Deficit But Skeptics Worry Details On Cut$ Are Scant.
Just this past June, the district exited state oversight after more than 20 years of fiscal supervision from the state and #Alameda County Office of #Education after an emergency $100 million state loan in 2003.

There's some more details about what happened at the high school ICE attempted to storm after murdering Renee Good.
It seems ICE rolled up with several vehicles and in short order ended up pepper spraying students and fighting with passers by.

The ruling from Judge Orlando L.

As a former #EastLosAngeles #PublicSchool #teacher whose #school & #students benefited from federal #grants - because we worked our asses off to educate the #children in our care & particularly to utilize #ESL techniques to help get their racially discriminatory #StandardizedTest scores to qualify us for that money, this is total bullshit.
