  • Let Schools Do the Driving

    Dec 16, 2016

    Many conservatives who work on education issues are feeling twice-bitten-thrice-shy when it comes to Uncle Sam. This apprehension could prove to be consequential as the Trump administration considers pushing a large-scale school choice program. In recent years, education causes previously embraced by the political right were seized by the federal government. Because conservatives believed so much in the particular issue, some were convinced to look past the principle of keeping reforms small, gradual and local. In other words, some...

The board rejected an earlier version of the plan in November, demanding more specifics. Mississippi Department of Education accrediting chief Paula Vanderford told the board...

    Dec 16, 2016

    U.S. education test scores have become embarrassingly bad. The latest results from the Program for International Student Assessment (PISA) are in, and the United States scored below average, as usual. American 15-year-olds performed worse in science this year than they did in 2012 (the last time the test was given), had stagnant scores in reading, and came in 31st place in math out of the 35 industrialized nations that took the test. The Washington Post’s Valerie Strauss blames the dreadful test results partially on “reformers.” “In...
