My final piece for @Chalkbeat this summer!
HopSkipDrive says it helps schools solve difficult transportation issues involving long distances and vulnerable kids, while also putting parents at ease. But the rideshare service doesn’t necessarily come cheap. https://t.co/V6guTXH8Pz
To keep up with a growing emphasis on workforce development, music education programs are helping students explore the industry and improve their broader career skills. But federal funding cuts make the future of this work less certain.

A recent study found that prominent teacher assistants that use AI generated recommendations that appeared to be rooted in racial stereotypes based on students’ names. About a third of teachers report using AI weekly, according to a recent survey.

Had the chance to go on @hereandnow this morning to chat about how a recent Supreme Court could complicate the roll out of Texas’s new K-5 reading curriculum. https://t.co/SuYR5HMnTE
A recent Supreme Court ruling supports parents’ religious right to opt their child out of LGBTQ+ inclusive curriculum. That decision could add momentum to some parents’ concerns about a Texas reading curriculum that emphasizes Bible stories. https://t.co/jpvb2roVrP
UPDATED: A new Trump administration rule will deny undocumented children from enrolling in Head Start programs. The change is major departure from longstanding policy & could have ripple effects on K-12 schools — w/ @thenorahtorious https://t.co/y0CMCDUS5n
The $23 million partnership aims to close gaps in technology use. Tech companies also will gain a “wealth of information” about how to adapt their products to the classroom. https://t.co/w3kOkdfcOp
The Supreme Court sided with religious parents seeking the right to opt their kids out of lessons including LGBTQ+ materials. Now, teachers may have to rethink how they approach inclusive content for all students.

A federal court order halted the Trump administration’s funding cuts to AmeriCorps, which works with schools and students nationwide, in 24 Democrat-led states. But that hasn’t helped programs in many states, and especially those in rural communities.
