When public funds are redirected to charters and vouchers, one thing is for sure...only the wealthy will be assured of a good education! We must fight to ensure that ALL children have access to a good education! Every single child deserves that. Period.
Do flexible classrooms work? "[They] are successful because they go hand in hand with a change in pedagogy...Changing the layout of your classroom will almost certainly have no impact at all—if you don’t change your teaching too." https://t.co/SzDmwtc3yA

I’ve never seen a profession short of spy agencies that evolved such an inherent lack of trust the past 50 yrs as education:
Federal gov doesn’t trust states
States don’t trust districts
Districts don’t trust schools
This is how you end up w/ “gotcha” accountability systems
