98 COVID deaths in Arkansas the last three days. Anyone thinking that the pandemic is over??? Just ignore it and keep going as if nothing is happening? A 29 year old Arkansas pregnant woman who died this past week who died leaving two other children? 1/x
Sen. Trent Garner freaks out on the senators who stayed behind to hear masks in schools testimony from people who can’t come back tomorrow. This is normal and fine.
@ArkansasBlog I'm heart broken watching this. I can't fathom how people can listen to the folks opposing this bill and think that's not complete insanity. It's complete gibberish.
#BREAKING: Marion School District confirms 168 students, 3 employees in quarantine after starting school Monday due to possible #COVID19 exposure. More below ⤵️
➡️ 7 students, 3 employees positive for COVID-19
➡️ 10 students, 15 employees not in quarantine because of vaccination
@ArkansasBlog That's over 60% of not fully vaccinated Arkansans.
While "Ready for Business," we're still not "Ready for Public Health" so the virus is once again negatively impacting business, industry, travel & tourism.
From @lrsd to @UNC, education suffers at the hands of @ArkansasOnline owner, Walter Hussman, and other self-entitled patriarchy from Arkansas to North Carolina. Such loss! https://t.co/hDVAttSjL8
Teachers’ voices need to be listened to - especially when it comes to teaching, learning and curriculum decisions. Respect, professional courtesy/consideration, safety protocols and support to do the job we love are also essential. #nea#education#teachers#atoy19#askmewhy
19 yrs ago I left corp. America & took a pay cut to teach. The salary was expected, paying $300 MORE in health insurance wasn’t. Now the State Board of Finance is considering a significant increase in premiums for teachers even though it pays 2x more for legislators.
Let me get this straight. The Arkansas Public School Health Insurance has a $70million deficit. So during a pandemic w/teachers being f2f this entire school yr, we are now looking at a potential 20% hike in premiums?! While our state has a surplus? @AsaHutchinson please explain.
The NCAA has announced that it won’t host championship events in states with laws targeting the transgender community.
That would include Arkansas. https://t.co/CbaKoJqrnJ
I’m beyond excited that my professional development course featuring the Writeous Poets and Little Rock Central High School students called “Coaching Self-Expression: Go In, Poet” won a National Public Media Award! @lrsd@ArkansasEd@MichaelPoore1
