In 2nd grade, my daughter was taught with paper & pencil for math. Textbook. Worksheets. Flash cards.
End of the year score she was within the national average, scoring in the 46th percentile.
In 3rd grade, she was taught using iReady, almost entirely digital math instruction.
Her end of the year score dropped to 21, below the average range.
In other words: the digital technology in the classroom, ed tech, made her learn less.
It’s the Chromebooks. Get them out of the classroom.
BREAKING: New Jersey Governor Miki Sherrill signs a bill effectively preventing Christians from praying outside abortion facilities
This is a violation of the First Amendment rights of pro-life Americans. No person should be punished for praying for the unborn.
Illinois public schools have been mandated to teach LGBTQ+ history to kids before they even finish the 8th grade. This law, signed by Gov. Pritzker, shifts the classroom focus away from core academics like math and reading.
Our schools should be focused on foundational education and raising academic standards, not pushing social agendas on young children. Parents—not the state—should have the authority to guide these sensitive conversations with their kids.
🚨 If You Can’t Define a Woman, Don’t Lead the WNBA
@sagesteele: “If the commissioner of the WNBA refuses to stand up for women—to define a woman—she probably should not be leading a women’s basketball league… No leadership… They deserve all of the criticism that they are receiving for simply refusing to stand up for women.”
Today is the Feast Day of Juan Diego. “Let not your heart be disturbed. Do not fear that sickness, nor any other sickness or anguish. Am I not here, who is your Mother? Are you not under my protection? Am I not your health? Are you not happily within my fold? What else do you wish? Do not grieve nor be disturbed by anything.”
- Our Lady in an apparition to Juan Diego, 9 December 1531
Erika Kirk just stood before the nation in the darkest moment of her life and proclaimed the goodness of God. That is extraordinary faith.
She truly is an inspiration.
Need a place to go to Church this weekend?
You are welcome at a Catholic Church.
All are invited. No worries if you don’t know what to do. Just experience the beauty and speak to a priest or deacon afterward.
You are welcome. God loves you.
These two child martyrs died directly due to hatred of the faith (in odium fidei). May 8-year-old Fletcher Merkel and 10-year-old Harper Moyski who gave their lives for Jesus Christ, pray for us that we may be strengthened in faith and receive the grace of courage to bear witness to the Truth.
Prayer is not an escape from reality. It is the very place we meet Christ, who Himself was unjustly slain.
We will continue to pray, not because we are passive, but because we know only God can bring true justice, healing, and peace. Evil wants us to stop praying and to despair. We will not. We cling to Christ, who has conquered death.
“The prayer of a righteous person has great power in its effects.” -James 5:16
Incredible.
Rising Hollywood star Gavin Casalegno recites the Bible for his followers, encouraging them to talk with the Lord.
We need more of this. ✝️
