This united opposition to VT Senate Bill S.219 from @VTVSBA @vtvsa @vtprincipals & the @vermontnea is unprecedented & smart. Usually these groups are at odds, yet here they've united to oppose real risks & failings of S.219. Senate Ed should listen.#vted https://t.co/1FJZ59lbtF

@neurodruid @propublica 2/ It is a little less clear to me what is happening in cases like this, where the billed tuition was greater than what the school claimed was its own cost per student. https://t.co/YMztZGZ0nb QT @RHolcombeVT: 1/ Opening schools w/out enough support in the midst of a #Delta surge is hard.

Young kids deserve to be taught, not expelled. But the VT legislature is so busy making public ed the only problem that it ignores the elephant in the room. The state is literally giving up its ability to make sure all kids have access to good education. https://t.co/hSCqFsg9Zb

@matt_barnum With respect, no credible supt ever thought this. What is new? Debates used to be about how to make best possible use of public dollars for shared purposes. The conflict today is not about how to achieve shared purposes. It is about whether we should even have shared purposes.

If you want to know how healthy a community is, look at it's public schools. They are one of the last few places we come together, despite our joys & sorrows, to protect a future for all our children. TY to the #vted-ucators who are digging deep this year to secure that promise.

I am grateful to the VT legislature for leading on this. I hope it also considers closing this loophole. If banning high capacity magazines in VT gives VT kids a few extra seconds to seek safety, it could do the same for kids in mass shootings elsewhere. https://t.co/YMQdfZDbio QT @Michael_Shank: Glad the VT leg is working to keep Vermonters safe.

@RebeccaHuenink @momdogz And I was trying to amplify this Rebecca with my comment on the dependency this creates on lobbyists. Here is the lobbyist book, for those interested, published by @VermontSOS. It is something. when you consider have few staff the legislature has. https://t.co/Kctol00ORv

@RHolcombeVT
When our state gives up on the democratic promise of public education, as many of our leaders in VT are doing, it feels like we are giving up on each other.

There are no bills for Gov. Scott to veto until the Senate passes bills on this, on private schools & child cares that use precious public eduction dollars to discriminate, or on paid leave (which is more important than ever for working families due to COVID).

How grateful I would be a for a VT leader with the courage to stand up on this issue and defend the principle that our precious education fund dollars are for community schools that serve all kids, not schools that pick & choose which kids are worthy. https://t.co/G3GXnVgdmD https://t.co/GxdOTvQJnl

Since he’s not working on systematic public health strategies to keep schools open, maybe Gov. Phil Scott should resurrect “Capital for a Day.” Schools need substitutes. His cabinet can sub to help keep schools in all 14 counties open in the next 2 weeks. https://t.co/DshxiHCzFu QT @VTEducation: Great day to join @GovPhilScott on his Capitol for a Day tour of Caledonia County.
