Let’s be clear, the FDIC is NOT funded by taxpayers. It is NOT funded by the govt. It is funded by banks who pay insurance premiums to the fund. We aren’t talking about gov’t bailout. It is run by the government and hence why it can seem politicized.

If anyone needs a little motivation today, call (707) 873-7862. It’s a school project where kindergarteners give you a pep talk. It’s so cute 🥹😅. And it’s automated!

Wow: 70% of Oakland charter schools applied for and received nearly $19 million in forgivable Federal Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loans intended for small businesses and nonprofits, despite having NO loss of state education funding. 🤯

Thread: More than half of teachers say that in the past 2 weeks, their students' engagement levels have declined, a brand-new @educationweek survey shows. More than 1 in 5 say student engagement has "declined a lot." Additional survey results here: edweek.org/ew/articles/2020/…

I’m hard pressed not to think that this is political. Blue states like California got a pathetic number of loans issued. Nebraska got nearly 75% of loans requested. I smell a rat with orange hair. bloomberg.com/graphics/2020-…

In @ChicagoCPS, all students must show evidence of a plan for life after high school: an acceptance letter from a college or trade school, or concrete plans to enter the military. How do other schools track postsecondary plans? ow.ly/l3GU30q3I4D
