But studies show AI text detectors are often unreliable, generating false positives that can erode trust […]

@douglasvb Yes, I agree parents must help make the schools better for all the kids.

But what does “good” mean? (Sorry, long reply)
During my time in the LA area (25 yrs) with three school age kids. They all went to public #schools because spouse and I believe that the purpose of elementary school is #socialization — the more diversity (in all respects) , the better. That’s what life requires above all else — the ability to get along, cooperate, and see people as unique and maybe interesting individuals.

The purpose of middle school was to begin to realize how big the world is and how much they don’t know, and in high school to nail the basic skills they would need in life — especially in college. The academics are good to have, but not MUST have.

My oldest two kids did their entire primary schooling in that context. Oh sure, we insisted on study and good grades but that was mostly motivated by their competitive side to succeed. It was OUR JOB to give them all the extracurricular education they could handle. I’m not talking about activities that cost money. The cost is measured in time and engagement by the parents (or other mentors).

My youngest unfortunately had to endure and adjust to five different high schools iver four years, three states and two countries. (And yes, I CAN hold a job!) He wrote in his college essay that he succeeded because it “brought out [his] inner velociraptor nature.” Indeed. They all went to college and have succeeded brilliantly in life and career.

Bottom line: it doesn’t matter how “good” or prestigious a school is as long as the parents are laser focused, together (🤞🏼), and fully engaged. That is the #1 challenge of education in the US.

I heard far too many stories about child on child sex abuse in UK schools. (And about some schools who failed in investigate or gave very light punishments and didn't report it.)

Normalising access to porn has had a huge impact.

#Solar power now powers more than 10,800 #US #K12 #schools – that means 1 in 7 students goes to a school powered by the sun – but battery storage hasn’t quite caught on yet.
The number of solar-powered schools has nearly doubled from 5,450 in 2016, while their combined solar capacity has more than tripled to over 2.4 gigawatts. Generation180 says that’s enough solar to cover the annual #electricity use of more than 450,000 homes – roughly every household in Austin, Texas.

Hundreds of French schools remain closed amid protests.

The student protests that rocked France last week have prompted authorities to keep up to 500 schools closed on Monday.

The protests by pupils complaining of poor conditions began at one Paris school on 17 September but last week mutated into sometimes violent demonstrations across the nation.

More protests are planned for Tuesday.
