It’s simple. By taking the bureaucracy out of learning, we ensure students have the best chance to succeed. That’s what the Returning Education to the States Tour is all about - states are taking back the job of teaching our students & building their futures.

@NicholasFerroni Learning to sit through things you don't agree with is an important skill...I have sat through a ton of crap meetings in my life. I have kids stand for the pledge that don't agree with it ...and they are just fine. I respect them for it...not making a big deal of it...admirable.

[Matthew Conover @conover_matthew]

@NicholasFerroni I also don't think any kid should have to sit through any prayer but should be free to discuss or pray as they want.

[Matthew Conover @conover_matthew]

@NicholasFerroni I am ok with either...so if I am ok with it then you are ok with the kids praying in school? As long as I am ok with any prayer? I would love to see kids praying, to any god they have...even Christian kids which seems to be our focus for making a point these days.

@MRBN36AR @umontana @MontanaGrizFB Thanksgiving...you don't expect students to travel home? @MontanaGrizFB can allum get some free tickets?

Why are we still using the Danielson Model to evaluate teachers when countries that outperform us—like Finland—don’t use it or anything like it? Backed by Gates in 2009, it became high-stakes, but even Danielson says it's misused. Trust, autonomy, and support build better educators. It's time for a change!

@ZachWLambert What is a "Trump Bible?" I don't want any Bible or religion in schools. There are plenty of other things that don't belong there also. There are horrible ideas in all walks of life...only on social media are they a big deal.
