@schelzig @TVAnews That would be an excellent choice. Any word on when an official announcement might occur?

[Cortney Piper @cpiper]

@cnnbrk How will this affect families with special education students?

@tyler_whetstone @MarshaBlackburn @GlennJacobsTN @alliefeinberg If elected governor, she’d serve as US Senator until sworn in. Then, she’d appoint a replacement until the next election (for US Senate).

Coming back here to say @6News Tennessee This Week first broke news about @MarshaBlackburn possibly running for governor and @GlennJacobsTN endorsing her. More here from the mayor on the 1/12/25 show. The pundits would appreciate the citation: https://t.co/spE8DG1Yvx

It’s a very bad idea, especially for kids with disabilities. This is how students with disabilities receive support in the classroom that will help them live fulfilling lives after K-12.

One school board member said she’ll bring a resolution to the board in September to adopt all our recommendations! 🙌

Post 1/2: In May, I was one of 10 parents appointed to the @KnoxSchools Special Education Task Force by our superintendent to provide recommendations to improve #specialeducation

We presented to the school board on August 7. It’s unclear how they will proceed.

@alexiszotos 2 weeks?!?! That’s insane and sad.

@WVLTBrittany It’s goooood! I love a good historical account of an old fashion political scandal. 💵

[Cortney Piper @cpiper]

@erenthepagan @blarglesauce @TheTNHoller @KnoxSchools I’m really sorry to hear that.

[Cortney Piper @cpiper]

@PeteAnRepete @TheTNHoller @KnoxSchools They have 4-5 BCBAs best I can tell. No RBTs or BT.
