Toured #CT’s first #NetZero #school today. Thrilled our community worked so hard to bring this project to completion. Teachers integral to the design process built in flexibility, student centered infrastructure. Solar, geothermal, high efficiency design make for a #sustainable #green building that saves on operating costs, too. Whole process was transparent with excellent engagement, bipartisanship.

Just got back from touring the first and only net zero school in the state (CT, US). Thanks to the hard work and vision of many at the town and state, and transparent process and engagement for this gift to our community. Teachers were integral in design decisions; it’s flexible, maximizes natural light, incorporates outdoor learning space. Sustainability was the guiding principle. Solar, geothermal, efficient design.
The Doukhobors were pacifists who lived communally, rejected private ownership of land, and who rejected military institutions and war. For this, they were oppressed in Imperial Russia. Many fled to Canada in the late 1800s. The cost of their resettlement in Canada was funded by the Quakers, as well as by individuals, including Tolstoy and Kropotkin. Many worked as loggers, lumbermen, and carpenters. In Canada, they continued their passivism and activism, including demonstrations in the nude against militarism and conscription. From World War I until the 1970s, a faction known as Sons of Freedom carried out nude marches, night-time arson attacks and vandalism to protest militarism, compulsory education (where there was a history of abuse of Doukhobor children) and modern technology. In 1932, Canada criminalized public nudity in response to Doukhobor protests, arresting over 300 Doukhobor men and women, with average prison sentences of three years each.
In 1962, folksinger Malvina Reynolds, composed the song, “The Doukhobor Do,” about protesting in the nude. Pete Seeger covered the song.

Last day of #school. The kid's biking all the way home on her own for the first time.
We've been practicing for this day for weeks. She knows the rules, knows how to handle her bike, knows to look out for drivers because they're not looking out for her.
We can do this.
If you are out on the roads this afternoon, PLEASE keep your eyes peeled for happy kids about to embark on the best summer of their lives.

An interesting discovery during #school #therapy session today. Son divides his attention between one activity and another. He does it with therapist 1:1 as well. He’s MORE engaged while doing it. We’re going to work on letting him do this in classroom setting and see if it helps him. Excited at the potential! Is he self-managing his sensory load? Maybe!

Violence erupted outside a #school board meeting as #LGBTQ+ activists and right-wing groups clashed over LGBTQ+ inclusion during #Pride Month.
On Tuesday (6 June) police were called to a school board meeting in the city of Glendale, California – just north of Los Angeles – after demonstrators came to blows with each other.
The confrontation happened as board members for the #Glendale Unified School District, which represents 25,000 #students, met to discuss recognising June as Pride Month. An agenda item they unanimously approved later in the evening.

Can those familiar with how these are being implemented/enforced please help me with responding to this the email from the school.

My son all day yesterday playing and not wanting to practice math for tomorrow's test because it's easy and he's got it.
At 21:15 last night - Mom we have to practice math.
We?!
...
My son is a smart kid that went through school like it was nothing but now math isn't something he can just brows and get an A.
Linear equations with fractions and one unknown are not something that can be passed without practice.
I'm amazed how much of it I remember from my school days but I'm sure we did it in highschool and not in the sixth grade.
Math I struggled with but physics I aced. Strange, I know 😁
It's not about the grades, it's about getting to know the limitations of your abilities and act accordingly.
Luckily, my son put aside his ego and decided to go to school this morning an hour early to practice math with his teacher and other kids that are struggling before the test.
I'm proud of him 😊

"On June 1, India cut a slew of foundational topics from tenth grade textbooks, including the periodic table of elements, Darwin's theory of evolution, the Pythagorean theorem, sources of energy, sustainable management of natural resources and contribution of agriculture to the national economy, among others.
...
Even as thousands of scientists across the country protested the decision to slash evolution last month, it did not deter India’s National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT) — the public body that designs curriculum and textbooks — from expanding its list of omitted topics."

"Self-censorship among teachers to face the reactionary wave in the classrooms: "There is a certain climate of fear"" by Laura Galaup (ElDiario.es; in Spanish).
"The entry of an ultra-conservative discourse in schools causes some teachers to fear the reactions of families to talks on feminist issues, LGTBI and sex education: "The ultra-right is beginning to participate in parents' associations"".
""There is a certain climate of fear about the reaction of families to certain activities," admits Alicia, a guidance counselor at a public high school in the southern part of the Community of Madrid. Among her colleagues, she says, there is some fear that classes on sexuality and LGTBI diversity are perceived among parents "as indoctrination or an ideological issue" and not as human rights issues"".

Today in Labor History June 3, 1910: U.S. anarchists formed the Francisco Ferrer Association in Harlem, one year after the wrongful execution of anarchist educator Francisco Ferrer in Spain. The organization founded libertarian socialist schools throughout the U.S. based on the principles of Ferrer’s Modern Schools. The American Modern Schools were designed to counter the discipline, formality and regimentation of traditional American schools. Regular working-class people ran the schools for the children of workers. They sought to abolish all forms of authority, including educational, with the goal of creating a society based on free association and free thought. They emphasized learning by doing, as well as crafts and reading. They avoided rigid curricula, rote memorization and regimentation, as well as rewards and punishments. They also believed that learning was a life-long process that never ended. Therefore, parents and other adults were encouraged to participate in the operation of the schools and to attend evening and weekend lectures. Some of the speakers at these lectures included Clarence Darrow, Elizabeth Gurley Flynn, Jack London, Upton Sinclair, and Man Ray. The schools also served as cultural centers for the promotion of revolutionary unionism, free speech, sexual liberation, and anti-militarism.

laying in bed working on writing a story, it would seem that I really do like writing after all. I've always enjoyed storytelling and reading, but I struggled with english class. through elementary and high school, english was the one subject I dreaded. I struggled with keeping my grades on par with the rest of my classes, and I struggled to simply complete the work. writing a formal essay with word counts, mla formatting, and hard time limits led me to become adverse to writing as a whole. I stopped reading for fun in high school, and the act of reading became stressful, a task that needed to be performed. now I'm in university, and with my classes, strategically chosen to have as little formal writing as possible, I've started to write in ways I never had before. I've just begun writing down the stories I've had kicking around in my mind for years. as I work, the writing feels like a medium for an art form rather than something mechanical. there are no length requirements or ways it must be formatted. there is no ticking clock that holds the balance of some arbitrary pass or failure. I can just create, and I think that's something special
