#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.

My Halloween treat for many years was showing the kids Judd Hirsh's "The Halloween that Almost Wasn't," during our classroom party. This 1979 TV special (now 'Riffed'!) is still a favorite. #halloween #publicschool #publicschools #student #students #elementary #elementaryteacher #elementarystudents #education #publiceducation #halloweencelebration #tradition #traditions #costume #Costumes #autumn #fall #halloweenparade #rifftrax
