West Windsor - Plainsboro Regional School District’s Post

"A new study from the National Alliance for Public Charter Schools finds that, across the country, enrollment in traditional district schools is down 3% (1.5 million students) while enrollment in public charter schools is up 9% (300,000 students). Many people thought the flight from district schools was a pandemic anomaly and that students would return. They didn’t."

Quality public education is a fundamental right. Puerto Rico spotlight raised by students! Anti charter is mentioned- charters are public schools with a higher rigor of quality education compliance in Puerto Rico than any other private or public school system on the island. The issue is not public charter versus public traditional schools. It’s about the flow of resources and how the public system has managed that flow.

Our country is comprised of states with vastly diverse weather, cultures, and communities, but one common theme is uniting them in 2024: education freedom. In state of state addresses this year, governors across the country have highlighted and prioritized the importance of school choice for students and families in their state. #SchoolChoice #SchoolChoiceNow

Just some food for thought... As you'll see in this link, a lot of schools are closing. You may not be aware, but asylum-seeking migrants and their children are in our communities. Many are the least educated or not educated at all. The reality is some are enrolling in our schools. Teachers and students are needing to accommodate (or compensate) for them in their classrooms. What if we separate those who need remediation and assess them for grade level and reopen and staff some closed campuses so those kids can enroll and catch up? Meanwhile, our kids can achieve their education unencumbered by slower students. You can argue all day about whether they belong here but the reality is it could take years to determine their claims of asylum. Kids continue to grow and chances of remediation slips away over time. We need to play the long game. Educate them now so they don't become tomorrow's poverty-stricken criminals that will prey on us or remain a burden on society. While we're at it, teach them good old American values so they appreciate the country they are in. https://lnkd.in/gB28mp2H?

This month marks a year since we launched the Let My Friends Learn campaign, setting out the steps that the UK Government can take to protect children's education during emergencies. Conflict, climate change, food crises, forced displacement and the aftermath of COVID-19, among other disruptions, are obstructing children’s right to education on an unprecedented scale. Globally, education systems and children’s future learning has never been at greater risk, and hard-won gains in expanding education access and improving quality are being reversed. We need the UK Government to: ✅ PREPARE: strengthen preparedness and anticipatory action in education systems ✅PROTECT: ensure children are safe, protected and learn during emergencies ✅INVEST: Scale up financing for EiE and systems strengthening ✅ACT: provide global leadership to protect children’s right to education in emergencies. Today, Parliamentarians, Policy Makers, CSOs & Young People will come together to discuss what steps the #UKGovernment can take to ensure every child can learn during emergencies Read the report here: https://bit.ly/LMFL1 Rebekah Lucking Hannah Frisch Takyiwa Danso Alya Harding
