@tnsampson2 @the_churchnews What a dumb statement.

[djensen @drdjensen]

@Kimmer4444 Both have said plenty outside of the game. Bon Jovi as well. No need to say anything, simply their front and center position is clear enough.

NFL claims their choices for entertainment is non-political in nature. Green Day and Bad Bunny says otherwise.

Is it me or is travel getting worse? Reno Tahoe used to be easy. Now no parking, constant delays. This morning we have to de-ice, but there are no de-icing trucks. My last 3 flights on American Airlines, I’m yet to make a connection. Ugh! Ridiculous.

Great kick-off for the 24-25 school year with our Keynote address provided by former superintendent Damien LaCroix. Together is Better! #AASABacktoSchool

[djensen @drdjensen]

Grateful for the opportunity to advocate for public education and for the ongoing support of Nevada’s legislators. Keep public dollars with public schools!

[djensen @drdjensen]

Congratulations to the graduated class of 2024. We started in McDermitt with our 8 graduates and ended with Lowry’s class of over 240. Congratulations!

Congratulations to the Lady Bucks on winning their third straight state championship. Amazing legacy!

No better way to start the annual AASA NCE conference than in Governing board with the best region in the country, Region 1! Looking forward to a great conference.

bravEd just posted a paper on standardized testing that I hope will become a must read: What standardized is and all the things it is not. You can find it in the Announcements on our home page. https://t.co/oTyPa0J94v

The argument that vouchers benefit students in poverty is inaccurate. Keep public funds for public education.

[Noelle Ellerson Ng @Noellerson]

Most families who get private school vouchers are affluent and previously paid for private school tuition on their own without a taxpayer-funded voucher. Learn more: https://t.co/7oUQPt3XSN #SchoolChoiceWeek

Rural schools face the same crises in learning loss and mental health as the rest of the nation, but have fewer resources to respond to them, a recent report from the National Rural Education Association found.

Here are some highlights from the report.

Let’s go Bucks!

[Lowry High School @LowryHigh]

Winter sports season has officially started! Stay tuned for games, themes, etc. and let’s cheer on our Lowry Buckaroos. #GoBucks #LHS 🏀🤼📣

[John Tanner @bravEdjt]

Why I will never support vouchers:

1. They solve zero problems.
2. They undermine public schooling, and
3. Absent a vibrant public educational system our democracy is in trouble.

But then, I think that’s the point. Please play the long game on this—it’s important.

Honor to attend the Communities in Schools Gala on Friday night. Humboldt County School District is proud to be a CIS district and see the impact of this amazing program. Thank you to @CIS_Nevada for your support!

[djensen @drdjensen]

@ShawnWalshEdS @Noellerson Highlight growth and progress while acknowledging that it requires a team (board, exec team, admin, teachers, classified) while avoiding statements such as “we do it x way in (prior district)). Good luck!

[John Tanner @bravEdjt]

Hey voucher fans. Let’s say I’m a member of a country club. But my city funds a public pool I don’t use. Can I please have a voucher that will help pay my dues? And to make it “fair,” give it to anyone who asks. If they can make up the difference they can “choose” the club too.

[djensen @drdjensen]

Public funds should remain with public schools. Great report on the real impacts of vouchers.

[djensen @drdjensen]

It was an honor to host our State Superintendent, Jhone Ebert, and Deputy Superintendent, Ms. Dixon demostraing our focus on high quality education from our Pre-K program to our High School. Thank you for your support!

[djensen @drdjensen]

No matter life’s challenges or struggles, the one thing we can always count on is family. I am grateful to my family tha keep me grounded on what is most important!
