During the 2016 presidential campaign, chants of “build that wall!” often echoed through rallies for Donald Trump, as his supporters cheered his proposal to construct a physical barrier on the border between the U.S. and Mexico. And in the aftermath of Trump’s victory, that chant could be heard elsewhere: in a middle school cafeteria. Students at Royal Oak Middle School in Michigan started chanting “build the wall!” during a lunch period following Trump’s election. Shawn Lewis-Lakin, superintendent of Royal Oak Schools, confirmed the episode...
Royal Oak middle school students chanting, “Build the wall.” An investigation into reports of white students in DeWitt blocking pathways for minority students. Reports nationwide of schoolyard bullying in the wake of Tuesday’s presidential election. The incidents, a response to the election of Donald Trump as the next U.S. president, created some tense situations in schools, and had some school leaders planning to spread the same message of unity being promoted by President Obama, Hillary Clinton and Trump. “It’s been stressful for a lot of pe...
Donald Trump’s election as president has sparked scattered reports of rancor on California campuses and beyond. A Muslim college student in San Diego was robbed, and Latino high school students in Northern California were given mock “deportation letters” by a classmate in incidents that authorities believe were tied to the election. Meanwhile, in the Bay Area, a principal was put on leave after he allegedly made profane anti-Trump comments. The incident occurred at Milpitas High School during a campus walkout, and the principal told the San J...
Donald Trump has won the presidency, but not before launching one of the most ugly and fractious campaigns in American history. As the 2016 election season now comes to a close, there are signs that it has left scars behind, particularly in the schools of the United States. The National Education Association (NEA), the nation’s largest teachers’ union, recently launched an information campaign to tie Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump’s “inflammatory rhetoric” to an increase in bullying in America’s schools. At the same time, the n...
We knew America was divided by this election. We knew campaign tensions had carried over to America’s classrooms. (Just last week, we canvassed schools across Los Angeles that reported spikes in bullying — harassment that echoed the words and themes of Donald Trump’s presidential campaign.) But we had no idea just how bad things would get for minority students. Or how quickly. Yesterday, reporters at The 74 started seeing scattered reports of school bullying, intimidation and violence. We decided today to begin compiling accounts from acros...
In Springdale, Ark., a second-grader from Mexico came to school Wednesday with tears in her eyes. She asked: “Does this mean we’re going to have to get all the stuff out of our house?” says Justin Minkel, her teacher at Jones Elementary, where 99 percent of the students live in poverty, and 85 percent speak English as a second language. He reassured her that President-elect Donald Trump doesn’t have the power immediately to send her family back to Mexico, and helped them understand when Mr. Trump will take office and how checks and balance...
Republican President-elect Donald Trump spoke about education only in broad terms on the campaign trail, leaving plenty of uncertainty about how his administration now intends to handle policy questions ranging from standardized testing and school accountability to the treatment of transgender students. But Trump’s stunning election is likely to mean a clear contrast with some key Obama administration policies, including a vigorous push for federally funded private school vouchers and a downsizing of the Education Department, which has arguably...
EDUCATION DEPARTMENT COULD SEE BRAIN DRAIN: The Education Department appears poised to lose a significant chunk of its institutional knowledge, as some career employees with decades of experience are looking for the exits because they’re unable to stomach a Trump administration. Some younger employees who joined the Education Department after being energized by President Barack Obama might head for the doors, too. That’s according to several former senior department officials familiar with the post-election mood at the agency. — The Educa...
State School Superintendent Richard Woods says the defeat of the Opportunity School District Tuesday will intensify his agency’s efforts to help failing schools that were eligible for state takeover. The effort to amend the state constitution to allow the state to seize schools and the local taxes supporting those schools was firmly rebuffed by voters; 60 percent voted against the OSD. “As state school superintendent, I have traveled to schools across Georgia, including some that were on the Opportunity-eligible list. Many factors con...
Amid a national vote that rocked the political world Tuesday, voters in Maine narrowly approved a measure that supporters say will be respectively disruptive to the state’s political status quo. With 98 percent of the vote reporting in the state, 52 percent of voters approved a ballot question making Maine the first state to implement ranked choice voting, a fundamental reform of how voters literally fill out their ballot. In a ranked choice vote system, rather than simply voting for one candidate, voters rank their candidates by p...
Jocelyn Hernandez dressed in all black on Wednesday morning as she faced an uncertain future. An Obama administration program for young immigrants brought to the country as children allowed Hernandez, a North Hennepin Community College sociology student, to work, drive and plan for a career as a teacher. President-elect Donald Trump has vowed to end the deportation reprieve program — part of a tougher stance on illegal immigration that he made a centerpiece of his campaign. After his victory, Minnesota Latinos and other immigrants worry a...
