For teachers who do not accept blame for the failure of society to erase poverty. Dedicated to the welfare of public education, the end of high stakes testing.

We have to make sure our children grow up in a true democracy. Our future depends on it. #TBATS @MIBATS @BATsDelaware @PennBat @MarylandBAT @OhioBATs @NoCarolinaBATs @NJBatsa @SoCarolinaBATs @VirginiaBATs @BATs_DC #July4th #FourthofJuly

Jennifer Berkshire @BisforBerkshire on @KnowYrEnemyPod had a brilliant analysis of failed centrist Democratic ideas about education and economic redistribution, specific to Youngkin's win in VA.
I'm very interested in how it applies to midterms results. https://t.co/vHGqYR063h

Public money should go to public schools, not private ones. It just makes sense. #CommonGood #TBATs #SupportPublicSchools .@MIBATS .@AFTBATcaucus .@OhioBATs .@NEABATCaucus .@PennBat .@VirginiaBATs .@BATs_DC .@NYStateBATs .@NPEaction .@Network4pubEd .@MarylandBAT .@IllinoisBATs

What has education come to? Talented, experienced teachers who love teaching are leaving in droves. You want to fix the Teacher Shortage? Fix this. #TBATs .@AFTBATcaucus .@MIBATS .@NEABATCaucus .@PennBat .@OhioBATs .@BATsDelaware .@VirginiaBATs .@BATs_DC .@WVBats .@VirginiaBATs

Charter schools are businesses.
They pick their Board Members. They can hide their finances. They can choose the easiest & cheapest kids to educate. #TBATs .@OhioBATs .@BATsDelaware .@BATs_DC .@VirginiaBATs .@PennBat .@MarylandBAT .@MIBATS .@KentuckyBATs .@MemphisbatBa

School Board Members & Administrators are worried. They have good reason to be.

Poll after poll shows that 90% of the public LOVE their public schools. Let's show the candidates in November that we won't support them, if they don't support our schools. #TBATs .@BATs_DC .@VirginiaBATs .@MIBATS .@AFTBATcaucus .@OhioBATs .@NEABATCaucus .@PennBat .@BATsDelaware
