No Child Left Behind became law 18 years ago today.
I voted against it, and that was the right vote.
High stakes testing has robbed students of the joys of learning and adds to teacher burnout.
We need a system where kids can learn in a holistic manner.

War is a class conflict, too. The rich and powerful who open war escape the consequences of their decisions. It’s not their children sent into the jaws of violence.
It is often the vulnerable, the poor, & working people -who had little to no say in conflict - who pay the price.
“i know that it is rarely the children of the billionaire class who face the agony of reckless foreign policy. it is the children of working families.”

Also, any teacher or office worker would love one of the pencil holders. Here’s the link: etsy.com/shop/wall3design
We use our kit at home to organize mail, hang our keys, hold our change bank and daily calendar, and more. It’s great for many things.
Wanted to tell you guys about Wall 3 design again. If you have a small space, need to organize, and want to support artists check it out.
Even though the students have only been back for six weeks we’ve decided to give them another week off. Vacation time.
Hope you guys will check out the link I sent. The products are great and very helpful for organizing.
Hey twitterverse. Sorry I’ve been gone for so long. Teaching is going well, but I’m busy all of the time.
If you’re like me and have limited counter space and like to be organized, , check out Wall 3 design at etsy.com/shop/wall3design
