Can we instead shift the convo to insane interest rates? Cut rates to at/just above FED lending and you'll cut payment time and monthly payments. It'll save thousands while still emphasizing the point.

The Supreme Court has rejected President Biden’s student loan forgiveness program, an initiative aimed at providing debt relief to millions of student-loan borrowers.

The most common mistake of new leaders?

Making changes without listening.

[Casey Studer @studer_casey]

3% SSA for next year.
Since 2011 it's been at 3% only once. The previous 38 years...SSA was below 3% only 6 times.
Gov praises a commitment of over $1b to public schools in the last decade. Forgets to share the $1b commitment over 4 years with ESAs to private schools...

[Casey Studer @studer_casey]

11 years of systemic attacks on Public Education finally culminate as ESAs pass. Tough day in Iowa. We will continue to fight for ALL kids, because they deserve it and they are worth fighting for!

[Joe Nietert @jnietert]

Usually don’t get political, but anyone who thinks the voucher bill is “school choice” and good for low SES and at-risk students/families in Iowa have been fooled. Special interest and the wealthy won in this bill being passed. This bill was for the “haves” not the “have nots”.

[Rob Sand @RobSandIA]

This bill gives private schools your tax dollars, and gives you no right to know what they are doing with them.

The start of the year is always filled with the perfect amount of chaos. Through all the noise, through all the confusion, let's remember...
"The main thing is to keep the main thing the main thing." -Stephen Covey

Our main thing? Kids.

Transparency doesn't mean sharing every detail.

Transparency means providing the context for the decisions we make.

NCAA: This is MADNESS.
Iowa Fans: No, this is pretty normal...

[Casey Studer @studer_casey]

Sometimes in the heat of the moment, we lose sight of ourselves and our purpose. Recently reflected on the excitement of my first teaching interview and classroom. Never forget why you showed up in the first place...Education matters, its the great equalizer.

Meanwhile, underpaid teachers are buying their own pens for their underfunded classrooms.

Iowa Senate: 2.25%, Iowa House: 2.5%, I'm anticipating the Governor will align with the House. Sadly, its half of what schools need. There's plenty of budget here, this is about power. Dont let the Appropriations bill fool you, just more distrust in Public Ed.

[Brad Buck @DrBradBuck]

SSA increase & actual costs. 3% is $119.3M and 4% is $168.1M There is room in the budget between commitments & revenue of $689M, including the Governor’s proposed tax cuts. Schools can be properly funded in a high inflation environment & taxes cut. Please call your Legislators.

[Casey Studer @studer_casey]

Its still early, but man, this still hurts. SSA technically helps everyone's agenda. I hate the voucher proposal, but come on, SSA increase even helps that too, why not put a positive foot forward for the sake of our youth?! This won't even cover inflation...

[Randy Richardson @RandyOnEd]

Senate Education Committee bill calls for 2.25% increase in SSA. They have no trouble finding money for private schools, but continue to starve public schools. @Iowans4PublicEd

[Casey Studer @studer_casey]

Is this our best effort? Shortage is real, yes and we need the next gen! Let's not forget how retention of staff plays into this dynamic. We need to address the elephant in the room, people are leaving ed...good people...profession crisis at hand. https://t.co/SGG2jLD3u7

[Casey Studer @studer_casey]

@JaredSmithPhD Congratulations on the new position! I'm excited to see your work expand into a larger scale!

[Casey Studer @studer_casey]

If only the public truly saw public education for what it is...a bunch of imperfect souls, dedicating their work to the betterment of their communities and the families and students within them. Nothing sinister, just people doing the best they can with what they have!

When the Armorer told Mando, “Persistence without insight will lead to the same outcome,” she was referencing the power of self-reflective habits.
