‘Patriotic Education’: Trump Says He Will Start New Commission : NPR

In austere, starkly divisive remarks, President Trump on Thursday said he would create a commission to promote "patriotic education" and announced the creation of a grant to develop a "pro-American curriculum." The move is largely political — a reaction to a growing push by some academics for schools to teach an American history that better acknowledges slavery and systemic racism.

I think schools should be teaching more about the legacy of folks like Jane Jacobs, Mario Savio and Abbie Hoffman. Or for matter folk singer Phil Ochs and Malvina Reynolds and studying the writings of Robert Caro and Vance Packard. History that uplifts ordinary Americans and give headaches to the power brokers.

Coronavirus Is Creating A Financial Crisis For American Schools : NPR

"Cuts to funding at schools will forever impact the lives of children," Beutner said less than a week after California's governor called for emergency cuts in education spending. The harm children face from these cuts, Beutner warned, "is just as real a threat to them as is the coronavirus."

Similar alarms are sounding in districts across the country. With the nation's attention still fixed on the COVID-19 health crisis, school leaders are warning of a financial meltdown that could devastate many districts and set back an entire generation of students.
