Among both liberals and conservatives, the Obama-era Race to the Top state grants became (rightly or wrongly) central to allegations that President Barack Obama and his education team used the $4.4 billion in competitive grants to strong-arm states into adopting policies about content standards and accountability that didn't have local buy-in and caused more harm than good. Indeed, when Congress passed the Every Student Succeeds Act in 2015, it rebuked Race to the Top in key ways, such as through ESSA's prohibition on the federal government...
A group committed to reining in charter school growth in St. Paul is sharpening its message and strategy. Members appeared before the school board recently to pursue support for a moratorium on new charter schools and the expansion of existing ones. Such moves are challenging in a state that prides itself on school choice. But the group, Parents for St. Paul Schools, now can count Board Chairwoman Zuki Ellis among its allies. Earlier this year, when the district's teachers union first floated th...
The state Education Department today announced the list of 175 schools that will share in $6.7 million in “recognition” awards for high student test scores in grades 3-10. Some awards are based on growth in student scores, as opposed to raw scores. The score-only standard tends to favor higher income, lower minority schools. The top five money recipients this year, for example, were three schools in Bentonville, one in Bryant and one in Little Rock. The black enrollment at these schools was in single digits, except 21 percent at Roberts Ele...
For today's teen, sexting is more common than ever before, but researchers are still unsure how the practice of sending and receiving explicit images affects teens, especially female teens, psychologically. New findings presented Friday at the annual meeting of the The Society for the Scientific Study of Sexuality, suggest whether, but not how frequently, teen girls sext is what matters for their mental health. https://www.businessinsider.com/sexting-linked-depression-anxiety-teen-girls-according-to-research-2019-11...
Mashpee has elected its first Wampanoag selectboard member in over ten years. David Weeden, who also serves as the Mashpee Wampanoag’s historic preservation officer, was elected in October, and many people hope his election will mark a turning point in what’s been a sometimes difficult relationship between the town and the tribe. Weeden was elected running on a platform in which he promised to protect waterways like the Mashpee River. As a member of the Wampanoag tribe, he said that rivers have played a large part in shaping the tribe's cul...
In July of 2005, JoJo Boswell went missing. Her sister, Dolly, immediately reported her missing, but was told to wait another 48 hours. Imagine law enforcement telling her they had more important things to do. Jojo was never seen again. Heartbreakingly, members from any of Minnesota’s eleven tribal nations and beyond can name the women and girls from generations past who have gone missing or have been murdered. If not their immediate family, then a member of their community. From the stories told, the acknowledgment of a life lived and a l...
Washington - (CNN) - The Environment Protection Agency plans to limit the scientific research that the government can use to form public health regulations, The New York Times reported Monday. A draft of the EPA's proposal obtained by the Times would require scientists to disclose their raw data, including confidential medical records, in order for the agency to consider a study's conclusions. The move would complicate the enactment of new clean air and water regulations, which are largely rooted in academic studies that rely on...

According to an analysis from the Center for Public Integrity, tribal nations were on average more vulnerable than the U.S. overall during the same period, based on measures such as unemployment and income. Yet, in the span of one year, they receive less than half of what the Department of Homeland Security grants states daily for recovery efforts. Data from the...
