I am the editor of @ChalkbeatIN, a Web site covering educational change in Indiana and part of the @Chalkbeat network. I'm also president of @edwriters.

Only @chendrie's departure from @EdWriters could get me to relent on my self-imposed retirement from Twitter. Hiring Caroline was the best decision I was a part of on the EWA board. I will always feel privileged to have been a part all that EWA accomplished under her leadership.

INBOX: "Journalists of the Allentown-based Morning Call today announced plans to form a union, becoming the third Tribune Publishing newsroom in three months to do so."

Wow this is big news: @FerebeeIPS is apparently interested in changing jobs. https://t.co/Ddn8Eq3XZM

@MBThompson12 @spjacoby Derek Jeter, Yankee MVP. Always and forever.

[Scott Elliott @ScottElliott_IN]

Great reporting by @ShainaRC. Raises questions about school accountability and the need to safeguard public funds.

It was interesting to cover Glenda Ritz's political story. So many unexpected twists and turns, including her surprising defeat Tuesday. https://t.co/MrgqA8cu6f

[Chalkbeat Indiana @ChalkbeatIN]

Glenda Ritz leaves office with an unexpected legacy: An energizing leader but also a one-hit wonder? https://t.co/35nrhzCeNh

[Scott Elliott @ScottElliott_IN]

@pooleyjd So old. But you're younger than me and have an even more youthful look about you! I remember when you were just an intern!

[Scott Elliott @ScottElliott_IN]

@ClaireMcInerny Kid has a great name, eh?

[Scott Elliott @ScottElliott_IN]

My daughter Claire turned 18 two weeks ago and voted in her first presidential election today.

Remember when Indiana was jazzed about "repealing" ISTEP? Yeah, it looks like it's going to continue on. https://t.co/RObNz41mYx

This is the name of my parking garage level in Chicago this morning.

None of the three candidates for Indiana governor like #ISTEP much. But they want some kind of test. #INGov https://t.co/FvPghf4ihr

[Scott Elliott @ScottElliott_IN]

@JohnBick1960 Argh. Thanks. Made the fix.

[Scott Elliott @ScottElliott_IN]

At press conf, @GreggForGov picks a student to ask a Q. Got a good 1 on paying for preK. But it means explaining budget reversions! #INGov

[Eric Weddle @ericweddle]

Did @RexBell say that preK would one day be forced/required of parents? (In a state where kindergarten is not mandatory?)

[Chelsea Schneider @IndyChelsea]

Candidates now are speaking about what they want...not much is education focused.

[Chelsea Schneider @IndyChelsea]

We've hit ISTEP, teacher shortage, job availability...nothing on school choice options yet.

[Tony Cook @indystartony]

Gregg: These are the issues - expand pre-K, stop teaching to test, better align education to workforce needs

[Brian Eason @brianeason]

Gregg: Treat teachers better.
Holcomb: I agree, but also let's spend money more efficiently.
Bell: I agree, but also local control. https://t.co/Np0DbI9Fqo
