This episode features my conversation with drummer Alphonso Young Jr. Based out of Virginia, Alphonso is highly regarded for his versatility and musicality. Throughout his 50 year career, he has worked with numerous high profile jazz artists, but is best know for his work with the Eric Byrd Trio, of which he has been a member for over 20 years. Alphonso is a music teacher with the Loudoun County Public Schools and is also currently on faculty at Shenandoah University & Gettysburg College where he is a leading authority on drum set performance. In our conversation, we talk about how he adapts traditional methods to develop contemporary approaches when learning the fundamentals. We also talk about the importance of incorporating musical applications into each lesson and why it's essential to be open to learning as much from your students as they do from you.

Wayde B. Byard served for more than twenty years as the public information officer for Loudoun County Public Schools. In a previous professional life as an award-winning journalist with the Winchester Star, he reported on crime, government (sometimes government-related crime), and sports.Seemingly overnight, parents across the country joined with activist groups and political figures at all levels to engage in heated—sometimes violent—fights over issues such as COVID mandates, retrofitting bathrooms to accommodate changing gender representation, and the teaching of American history through the lens of race. At the epicenter of this outrage machine was Loudoun County, a suburb of Washington, D.C., and the wealthiest county in the nation.Accused, along with the superintendent, by an ambitious, conservative governor and attorney general of covering up the crime, Byard—who most students knew from his popular announcements of snow days—was ultimately acquitted of a perjury charge but left with a troubling awareness that what happened to him could happen to anyone. In The Battle for Loudoun County, Byard sets the record straight and provides a rare window into the dangers of America's “bathroom wars” and the culture of outrage that, if left unchecked, will tear our country apart. http://waydebyard.com The Douglas Coleman Show VE (Video Edition) offers video promotional packages for authors.

Due to the ongoing Canadian wildfires, unhealthy air quality continues to plague the region. WAMU environment reporter Jacob Fenston joins us to discuss how local officials responded to this crisis. What has the region learned for when this happens again? The D.C. Council passed emergency legislation this week capping rent increases to 6% at some apartment buildings. Chairman Phil Mendelson tells us how the bill came together and why this is needed now. And D.C. elections took center stage this week on Capital Hill with an hours-long hearing. It could result in a Republican-led bill changing how the city conducts its elections. We ask Chairman Mendelson about that. And what does he want in a new police chief? Plus, Loudoun County Public Schools has hired a new superintendent after the previous one's tenure ended in turmoil and controversy. Kojo and Tom sit down with incoming Superintendent Aaron Spence to talk about his approach to the job, gaining trust, and what residents can expect when he starts the position later this summer.

How to Save Our Schools from the Left's Radical AgendaParents of the World, Unite!: How to Save Our Schools from the Left's Radical AgendaClarity from Chaos guest: Mr. Ian Prior, author of Parents of the World, Unite!: How to Save Our Schools from the Left's Radical AgendaThis essential playbook reveals the winning strategies for successfully fighting a radical woke agenda in your kids' schools.Ian Prior is one of the most articulate and successful parent-activists in the United States. Armed with 12 inspiring battle-tested rules and revealing stories about sparring with self-righteous Woke neighbors (the “Chardonnay Antifa”), Ian shares secrets about what fellow parents can do in their own school districts to stop the Left's dark vision from taking root.Get ready to laugh. This is not a boring education book. With real world lessons and funny anecdotes readers can connect with, Ian explains how families can win the battle to stop divisive and dangerous concepts rooted in critical race theory and other dangerous left-wing ideologies from spreading to their schools. He convincingly makes the case that the Left envisions a public education system in America where children are no longer the responsibility of their parents but rather mere wards of the state.You'll be shocked and amused by the outrageous stories in Ian's suburban county that unexpectedly became ground zero for the parents' rights movement. This sign-of-the times book helpfully explains the confusing and infuriating cultural moment we find ourselves in.Parents of the World, Unite! is an indispensable book for American families who believe they should be able to raise their children without government interference in their moral, religious, and ethical choices -- and are ready to join a revolution of parents.Mr. Prior is one of the most recognizable voices in the parents' revolution that has swept the country. Ian began his career as an attorney in New England in 2002 after graduating from Boston University School of Law. He transitioned into politics in 2011, working on various Republican campaigns before serving as a top spokesman at the Justice Department. Ian is married and has two daughters in elementary school in Loudoun County Public Schools in Virginia. In 2021, Ian formed the group “Fight for Schools."FIND HIS WEBSITE HERE:FIND HIS TWITTER HERE:FIND HIS LINKED IN HERE:Support the show"Wherever you find yourself is exactly and precisely where God wills you to be" Follow us on X: @CFC30290 Follow us on Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/c-3123766 Website: https://clarityfromchaospodcast.buzzsprout.com/ Thanks for listening to Clarity from Chaos

A remarkable human being that is solely focused on "enhancing the school year for employees" by encouraging them to SHOW UP and find hope together in relationships. He pursues people and leads with relationships without any hidden agendas. He is authentic and real. Brett meets individuals for "where they are" and "who they are". They don't need to be anyone but themselves for him to engage. When teachers put their heart and soul into their students, they may arrive early when it is dark and leave the building at night. STAFF Fellowship brings sunshine to their day and creates opportunities for teachers and employees to gather, support one another, and learn. Visit: https://stafff.org/ About Brett: "I am passionate about the culture of education, and all who are connected. After graduating from Loudoun Valley High School in Purcellville VA, I earned a bachelor's degree in communications from Liberty University and a master's in educational counseling from Lynchburg College. During my career as a counselor within Loudoun County Public Schools, I formed relationships with other staff members and launched faculty Bible studies with those eager to read the Gospel aloud and pray for the specific needs impacting their campuses. Over time, I recognized that many faculty around the county were eager to connect in similar ways, and as a result, I took a leap of faith to leave my full-time position to create STAFF Fellowship Inc."

Loudoun County, Virginia has become the epicenter for several public school controversies including CRT - Critical Race theory. That pales in comparison to the recent discovery that Loudoun County Public Schools and the Superintendent have failed to report, as required by state law, rapes and assaults in several of the high schools. We dive into the details and discuss how a 14-year old 'gender fluid' male student, accused of forcible sodomy and forcible fellatio in the girls bathroom, was allowed to enroll in a different school where another sexual assault and abduction occurred.Become a Player in the biggest, baddest and most dangerous game of all - the Game of Crimes:https://open.acast.com/public/patreon/fanSubscribe/6295926Join us at Patreon.com/gameofcrimes for great content you won't hear anywhere elseDonate at paypal.me/gameofcrimes or go to paypal.com and use our email: gameofcrimespodcast@gmail.comGo to GameOfCrimesPodcast.com for more info and NEW MERCH!Follow us on...twitter.com/gameofcrimesfacebook.com/gameofcrimespodcastinstagram.com/gameofcrimespodcastSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this segment... (Daily Caller)The parents of a girl who was allegedly assaulted in the bathroom of a Virginia high school plan to pursue legal action against Loudoun County Public Schools. The legal action may also address the arrest of Scott Smith during a contentious Loudoun County school board meeting on June 22. Also... Allegations that Loudoun County Public Schools covered up the assault have led to demands for the superintendent to resign. A woman in Canada awoke in shock earlier this week when a rock crashed through the ceiling of her home and landed on her bed, narrowly missing her but spraying grit and other debris on her face, as her dog barked frantically. Police were called and the culprit was initially suspected to be a construction site nearby, where work must have sent the fist-sized projectile onto the woman's pillow. But when the construction workers said they had not set any blasts – but had just seen an explosion in the sky – the consensus quickly became that the rock was a meteorite, the Canadian Press reported.

Classcast Podcast Ep.075 features Cary Vipond and Kevin Cook, members of "The Cookout," a discussion group focusing on race relations and making positive change in the Loudoun County, Virginia community. Along with host Ryan Tibbens, they discuss the recent debates (and hysteria?) over critical race theory, equity training for school staff, anti-racism, and politics in public schools. Given Fox News' new obsession with Loudoun County Public Schools as well as the parent and political groups seeking to influence them, Cary, Kevin, and Ryan agreed it was time for reasonable people with first-hand experience in these schools and communities to have a reasonable discussion.Cary Vipond, a long-time history and social science teacher, football coach, and father, launched "The Cookout" in the aftermath of George Floyd's murder. He assembled a group of Black and white men, including community leaders, entrepreneurs, clergy, teachers, and students, to share perspectives and ideas, first to help one another understand the racial dynamics at play in the country, and then to take actions to improve local government, business, and schools for Black people. ClassCast Podcast host Ryan Tibbens was invited by Cary to join the group when it was formed. Kevin Cook, a certified project manager, coach, and father, joined the group soon afterward and has been a thoughtful, vocal participant in the group's efforts.

Dear LCPS Community, Earlier today, a local media outlet shared erroneous information regarding COVID-mitigation protocols Loudoun County Public Schools will be following when we return to school.

Teri Netterville and Denise Arthur are truly horrified at the contents in some of the required high school textbooks now being used in the Loudoun County Public Schools (located in the northern part of Virginia). The subject matter and words are so sexually explicit and inappropriate that they are not allowed on radio, and yet these textbooks are required reading for high school freshmen! The parents are also having problems with this same school board pushing Critical Race Theory into the classrooms! Time to replace the entire School Board!
Louis Avallone and Stephen Parr have questions about who is really driving that test Ford Truck. Could it be possible a Secret Service Agent was in the passenger seat actually driving? It is an interesting question considering Biden’s current mental state and the reality that Presidents never drive again after taking office? It is also interesting when Stephen noticed something very odd about Biden’s steering wheel.What is it with these socialist Democrats? They are only proud of their Country when they are getting their way? No! If you truly love The United States of America, you ALWAYS love the USA……and that means you love the fundamental ideals expressed in the Declaration of Independence. And you truly believe ALL men and women are created equal. Our American Mamas, Teri Netterville and Denise Arthur, are truly horrified at the contents in some of the required high school textbooks now being used in the Loudoun County Public Schools (located in the northern part of Virginia). The subject matter and words are so sexually explicit and inappropriate that they are not allowed on radio, and yet these textbooks are required reading for high school freshmen! The parents are also having problems with this same school board pushing Critical Race Theory into the classrooms! Time to replace the entire School Board!Louis Avallone and Stephen Parr believe the socialist Democrats have the legality of both “Vaccination Passports” and “Voter Photo ID” backwards. Because of HIPAA, requiring anyone to disclose to strangers their health information is not legal. However, it just is not logical for any legal American adult of any race, including blacks, to not have any kind of photo ID and are unable to obtain one. Considering all the things Photo ID is required by law in all the 50 states which no one seems to have a problem with, showing that same ID to vote should not be difficult.Stephen Parr and Louis Avallone have been reporting on the ongoing crisis on our southern border for many weeks. The Washington Examiner is also reporting on it, including the fact that more than 61,000 illegal immigrants have been turned loose within the United States by the Border Patrol without even being given an immigration Federal Court Date in the past 3 months. ICE has been turning illegals loose, as well. To make it even worse, the Department of Homeland Security closed two illegal immigrant facilities, one in Georgia and one in Massachusetts. Apparently, there has been problems of abuse of detainees and misconduct by government officials, including doing unwanted medical procedures, such as hysterectomies, on some female detainees. WOW! The Nazis did that to the Jews in the Concentration Camps. So why is BIG MEDIA so silent on this kind of potential criminal behavior?It is amazing this was even a reasonable idea to anyone, and especially at the Small Business Administration! Following the Equal Protection Clause of the Constitution of the United States, a Federal Judge in Dallas, TX has ruled that the SBA cannot discriminate against anyone based upon race or color of skin! A white male restaurant owner had applied for funding from the Restaurant Revitalization Fund, but the SBA was refusing to process his application until they were able to process all of the applications from “women, veterans and ‘socially and economically disadvantaged’ people for a period of about three weeks. By then, all of the $28.6 billion would most likely be gone.

Has our education system become too obsessed with race? A Virginia high school teacher has gained national attention after scolding a student for not recognizing the racial differences of two girls on a lesson slide. Loudoun County Public Schools in Ashburn claims they have “not adopted Critical Race Theory as a framework for staff to adhere to” and yet it appears some teachers have not gotten the memo. Is bringing attention to racial differences helping or hurting the progression of equality?
President Biden appears to have erased Dr. Seuss from "Read Across America Day", the annual celebration of reading in honor of the legendary children's author, whose birthday falls on March 2.While Biden followed presidential tradition in proclaiming Tuesday "Read Across America Day," he bucked his predecessors by leaving out any mention of Dr. Seuss from the proclamation.The White House didn't immediately return a request for comment on why Dr. Seuss was left out of the proclamation, but the snub comes as progressives have sought to cancel the beloved children's author. One of Virginia's biggest school districts, Loudoun County Public Schools, reportedly nixed Dr. Seuss from the school's "Read Across America Day" celebration, citing alleged racial "undertones" in his children's books.

ClassCast Podcast Episode 048 features host Ryan Tibbens sharing insights and advice on reserving judgment (and passing it), building patience, and keeping an open mind. As a teacher, he has developed a deeper appreciation for patience, optimism, and open-mindedness than most people (and certainly more than he had earlier in life); this quick solo episode includes ideas to help teachers maintain strong relationships with students and coworkers as well as advice to help families and friends overcome personal, political, and moral differences as we head into the holiday season. Tibbens uses a line from F. Scott Fitzgerald's classic novel The Great Gatsby to anchor these insights: "Reservingjudgments is a matter of infinite hope." Before you give up on a student, "unfriend" an old friend, or uninvite someone from a holiday celebration, think long and hard about hope, possibility, and patience.

ClassCast Podcast Ep.045 features Taylor Freeman (founder & CEO of Axon Park, co-founder of Upload, Forbes 30 Under 30, and VR industry leader) sharing knowledge and insights about the exciting field of XR (virtual reality, augmented reality, etc. -- we explore the names and functions in this episode), how it can impact and improve schools, and how the world may change as virtual reality technologies become better, cheaper, and more popular. Whether you know nothing about virtual reality or you have your own headset, this episode has something for you -- educational applications, business dynamics, technical details, recommended platforms, and more. Host Ryan Tibbens first gave serious consideration to virtual reality schooling in late September 2020 after teaching synchronous online classes all day. "It would be great if students could work from home but feel like they were around each other, if they could look around and see each other to improve class climate and discussion." From there, the idea took off: "If we had virtual reality capabilities to recreate the classroom, why stop there? Why not make every day a lab day, field trip, or hands-on activity?" Tibbens contacted Freeman, and the result is an exciting, interesting, truly outside-the-box discussion about how we can apply new technologies to improve nearly every aspect of both traditional and online schooling. Whether you're looking for educational innovation, information about a quickly advancing technology, what the future may hold, or even a great holiday gift idea, Ep.046's conversation with Taylor Freeman is rich in ideas and inspirations.Table of Contents 0:00-9:47 -- Intro to Taylor Freeman & VR in Schools9:47-13:31 -- The Inspiration for This Discussion 13:31-23:52 -- Taylor's Education 23:52-34:57 -- The Rise of Virtual Reality in School & Beyond34:57-42:19 -- VR, XR, AR, MR: What Are We Talking About?42:11-44:50 -- The State of XR/VR Today44:50-54:53 -- Axon Park: The School of the Future 54:53-1:01:02 -- How to Create a Virtual Setting1:01:03-1:13:56 -- Virtual Reality in Movies AND Taylor's Book/Movie Recs. 1:14:22-1:30:06 -- Final Thoughts: Video, Cyber Sickness, Oculus Quest 2, & AR in Class1:30:06-1:37:53 -- Taylor's Ideal SchoolContactsFind Taylor Freeman on Twitter @TaylorPFreeman, on Instagram @TaylorPFreeman, and on LinkedIn.

In this sub-20 minute episode, host Ryan Tibbens discusses some of the less-talked-about aspects of the most common school models considered as school leaders across the country search for the best way to get students "back to school." In many districts that have used 100% district learning through the first quarter of the school year, public pressure is mounting to open hybrid options that allow students back into the school building on a part-time basis. A model that is growing in popularity -- concurrent hybrid schooling -- allows in-person and online students to participate in the same class. That option sounds great at first, but a closer look at the logistics quickly reveal it to be just as limited as other options. In the end, we may not have any good options, so we're all left to discuss and debate which is the least bad. No matter what your school division's leadership chooses, do your best to support students and the ultimate goal of school -- to empower individuals and uplift communities. Please read this great article about concurrent hybrid teaching from NBC News.Support the show (http://paypal.me/TibbensEST)

ClassCast Podcast Ep.044 features Matt Bass, candidate for Board of Supervisors in Clarke County, VA, discussing life, school, politics, community, and planning in small town America. Clarke County, VA is located just over an hour west of Washington DC in the northern Shenandoah Valley. A small, rural county, it is home to just under 15,000 people, one high school, one grocery store, and a whole lot of genuine Virginia character. Situated just over the Blue Ridge Mountains from the booming DC suburbs of Loudoun, Fairfax, and Arlington, Clarke has managed to preserve thousands of acres of pristine farmland, beautiful mountain forests, and a small town charm that makes it unique in the northern Virginia region. In this episode, Matt shares his experiences growing up and going to school in Clarke County, attending the University of Virginia, becoming an attorney, starting a family, and future plans for the community he loves. Listeners from big cities or growing suburbs may be surprised to hear about the significance of schools in small communities; listeners from small towns will feel affirmed and reassured by Matt Bass's vision for the future.

In this highlight from ClassCast Podcast Ep.044, Clarke County, VA Board of Supervisors candidate Matt Bass and host Ryan Tibbens discuss politics, planning, and community preservation. Clarke County is situated approximately an hour west of Washington DC in the northern Shenandoah Valley. In many ways, Clarke County represents "genuine Virginia" -- small towns, agricultural economies, and traditional communities -- and its proximity to the booming, wealthy suburbs of northern Virginia present an unique situation, a bridge between two worlds in one of our nation's oldest and most historically rich regions.

ClassCast Podcast Ep.043 features host Ryan Tibbens discussing wide-reaching, intrusive, and imperfect policy changes in his school division that are resulting in suppression of teachers' First Amendment rights, paranoia among employees, book banning, censorship, and more. Banned Books Week 2020 runs from September 27 through October 3 and, ironically, included Tibbens' first personal run-in with book banning during his 15 year teaching career. The new policy not only infringes upon employees' first amendment rights in hopes of protecting the division's public image and efficiency, but it declares a universal ban on racial slurs "regardless of intent" as well. That, of course, sounds great, but it results in a wide variety of high quality texts becoming unsafe -- or possibly banned -- for classroom use, rendering teachers' efforts to support national and local antiracist goals harder to achieve because teachers have fewer options for texts to inform and guide those discussions. In this episode, Tibbens addresses problematic aspects of the new policy, connects it to classroom realities, and defends The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, The Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, The Autobiography of Malcolm X, Of Mice and Men, To Kill a Mockingbird, Just Mercy, and more. If you are serious about fighting racism and censorship while promoting critical thinking and intellectual freedom, this episode is not to be missed.
