My look inside the court cases of accused noncitizen voters @AP: The GOP stoked fears of noncitizens voting. Cases in Ohio show how rhetoric and reality diverge https://t.co/t0JLS85hED

Chris Quintana truly makes hay out of y'all's pitches in a way I have rarely seen:

[Chris Quintana @CQuintanaDC]

Got a pitch offering Rick Singer, mastermind of Varsity Blues scandal, as a college admissions expert that did not mention where he acquired that expertise, though DID mention he had been highlighted in other media outlets. The pitch/other outlets:

"As Canada pushes to expand euthanasia ... health care workers here are grappling with requests from people whose pain might be alleviated by money, adequate housing or social connections." Heartbreaking reporting on what it means to live in poverty: https://t.co/OaW6NL7iQm

Here's my latest from Aurora, CO. For migrant women who land in Colorado looking for jobs, a common answer emerges: No https://t.co/krRrppAkjm

NEW: an investigation nearly two years in the making. At least two dozen schools in Michigan serve students with severe behavioral disabilities. A Free Press analysis of nearly 8,000 emergency dispatch records show these schools are leaning on police.

A "network of deception" makes migrating to the US seem much easier than it is, reports @biancavtoness.

School day and school year are both two words for any day or year that school is in session, either virtually or in person.
Schoolwork and schoolteacher are each one word, no hyphen. However, terms such as grade school teacher or high school teacher are styled as separate words.

[Chrissie Thompson @CThompTweets]

It's been a dream of mine to get a story like this into mainstream news outlets across the country. @ByMoriah answers the question every parent of toddlers and preschoolers asks: What should I look for in a high-quality preschool or child care center? https://t.co/xWL5OczUfZ

What fabulous news! @s_garl is among the best in the business, and one of my favorite people on the beat

[Liz Willen @L_willen]

All of us @hechingerreport are thrilled for our former colleague, leader and friend, @s_garl: The @nytimes made a very smart promotion that is great news for education: https://t.co/l8tkDC19zr

This week @AP launched its latest package on chronic absenteeism, documenting how and why the problem has persisted -- and what's working to improve the numbers https://t.co/koDU9Kdc7e 1/

[APStylebook @APStylebook]

Hyphenate back-to-school as a compound modifier: back-to-school supplies, back-to-school clothes, back-to-school time.
But no hyphen is needed when it's used as a freestanding phrase: She went back to school.

@lilyalta I sent so many pregnancy investigations to the physicist and told him it was his job to read them.
