@AmericanGwyn That’s a great list, Aaron, Absalom Absalom so often overlooked. I’d only suggest Independence Day, Richard Ford.

More than 95% of microschool students report being treated with respect by their teachers, and 97% say that their teachers care about them, want what is best for them, and care about their learning, finds new national study.

Thank you, @HowieRose, for making life, and so afternoons and evenings for so many years, that much richer and magical for this lifelong Mets fan in my 10th year out West. You really are the greatest.

@KSUHybridSchool You guys killed it today, great job!

New study finds microschool parents prioritize stronger relationships, increased home-school communication, enhanced safety in their microschools.

Meanwhile at home: "Las Vegas elementary teacher arrested for battering two autistic students, police say"

New microschools study author finds:

“I’ve done a lot of school climate analyses of school climate surveys over the years. And I don’t know if I’ve ever seen such positive results from students when reporting on the climate of their school."

What we shouldn't do is to do more of the same and try to make every school look like traditional public schools. @Dale_Chu

Anyone else see The White Stripes at the Black Cat, 2003 maybe? Was all I could think about, wondering who else in the Mayflower was there.

[Don Soifer @donsoifer]

Was sitting in the Mayflower Hotel in Washington DC and The White Stripes came on over the lobby speakers. I don’t make it back so often - have times changed that much?

A rare bookseller hid an AirTag in a book he sold online and tracked it to an Amazon "data-ingestion" facility in North Las Vegas where workers scan books to feed artificial intelligence, and then destroy them.

The facility's logo is literally a dinosaur eating a book.
