Adam Thielen directed his fellow receivers into celebration formation Sunday but did not have the energy to finish what he started after his breathtaking and backbreaking touchdown catch in Minnesota’s 24-7 victory over the Rams.

Former U.S. Sen. and St. Paul Mayor Norm Coleman said he would have beaten Al Franken in the hotly contested 2008 Senate race if a photo of Franken appearing to grope a sleeping woman had come out.

WASHINGTON – Congressman Collin C. Peterson made the following statement after House passage of the Republican tax bill. “I support making the corporate tax rate more competitive internationally and simplifying our system. However, eliminating a number of provisions like those that help families who have large medical bills due to cancer or Alzheimer’s, or those that help people struggling to pay off their student loans in order to pay for the corporate reduction is not fair and not needed given we end up with a large increase in the national d...

For weeks before her death, Jean Krause lay in her bed at a northern Minnesota senior home, staring mutely at the walls. Even when her children arrived with flowers or her favorite dessert, she did not respond.

High-quality early-childhood programs boost graduation rates, reduce grade retention and cut down on special education placements, according to a new analysis of several other early-education research studies that adds fresh fuel to long-running policy debates about the effectiveness of pre-K. "These results suggest that the benefits of early-childhood education programs do in fact persist beyond the preschool year," said Dana Charles McCoy, an assistant professor at the Harvard Graduate School of Education, in an email interview. McCoy was...
The top education official in Kansas on Tuesday proposed allowing more schools to hire educators who don’t qualify for teaching licenses under the state’s current system — and signaled he would support changes to state regulations if needed. The proposal could meet with resistance from the state’s main teachers union and educators who opposed similar changes to licensure requirements in recent years that they viewed as lowering professional standards. But it could also find support among school administrators seeking more flexibility to recr...
ST. PAUL — A pair of cases before the Minnesota Supreme Court could spark big shifts in schools across the state. The court has agreed to hear a case challenging teacher tenure laws that a group of Minnesota parents brought against the state and several school districts last year. The parents claim tenure protections make it too hard to fire ineffective teachers and worsen the achievement gap. http://www.postbulletin.com/news/education/supreme-court-case-could-reshape-teacher-tenure/article_c71cb557-7bd3-5c58-97bd-8b1a54e1fb...
When Abbe Large's daughter was a toddler, she was diagnosed with a peanut allergy so severe that the skin on her cheek reacted to a kiss from her father hours after he'd eaten peanuts.
