| 1626367595099344896 | @jfenster @EdSource @GavinNewsom @ChildrenNow @opportunityorg @ACSA_info @emmagallegos @BayAreaData Is he nixing the teachers' unions & prohibiting strikes of school employees? They can bargain w/o threatening students' actual education. Or pull back restrictions on charters. Maybe embrace education savings accounts? When public neighborhood schools compete, they get better. | 13 |
