WI can’t close the widest achievement gap between black and white students in America with typical culturally responsive practices alone. We have to also teach the code of the English language. @DrJillUnderly @WisconsinDPI @WASBWI @WASDA #Act20 #wireads

Wisconsin's 2024 curriculum list is final:

The ELCC recommendations carry the day, giving Wisconsin the strongest ELA curriculum list in the country! 👏

Also, the lobbyist box is empty. 👏

HT @repborn @SenMarklein @SenStroebel for their leadership.

[WI Reads @WI_Reads]

How committed are WI legislators to the intention of Act 20?

[Karen Vaites @karenvaites]

Good News in Wisconsin!

Legislators reject @WisconsinDPI's proposal to recommend the EdReports all-green curricula.

Other news in WI:

The lobbyists are working overtime. Outcome is still TBD.

This is how the literacy community is going to discuss the Act 20 curriculum list for the rest of time:
- The ones picked by experts
- The ones picked by lobbyists

@repborn @SenMarklein & JFC can still cut the Lobbyist Section out of there.

Should WI tax payers provide financial incentives for preferences or high quality curricula?

[Quinton Klabon @GhaleonQ]

@karenvaites @repborn @SenMarklein Why is the list expanding? Wisconsin School Boards:

"If you have an interest in a certain curriculum - maybe it's one you're already using...and it's part of that 11 or not part - ...reach out to your state legislators and let them know your preference."
