Educator Marshall Tuck came within a hair of becoming State Superintendent of Public Instruction twice, narrowly losing both the 2014 and 2018 elections (first to incumbent Tom Torlakson, and then to Tony Thurmond).  Tuck first came to statewide prominence as an education advisor to LA Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa, who tapped him to head the Partnership for Los Angeles Schools. Following his two runs for office, Tuck looked for other opportunities to "make a difference," as he put it, and landed a gig late last year as the head of EdVoice, a philanthropist-founded Education nonprofit with a mission of eliminating educational inequality and bringing underperforming schools up to par.He joined us today to talk about his priorities at EdVoice, the potential for program cuts as the state budget tightens, and why he wanted the  job as State Superintendent. Tuck is a passionate advocate for improving educational opportunities for all of California's children, and denounced the wide disparity between the highest and lowest performing schools- what he calls 'Two Californias.'Plus we tell you who - or in this case "what" - had the worst week in California politics.Episode Notes1:16 The new gig3:48 Priorities for 2023?4:48 #SB691 - Dyslexia screening6:12 What reading level are California's kids at?8:09 Is there opposition to screening?12:23 What does the budget deficit mean for education?15:45 "This state was so far behind..."17:34 The impact of COVID20:30 Data points23:14 Gov.

In 2018, Matt sat down with Marshall Tuck after observing him speak off the cuff at a local fundraiser. Here is what he said about him back then: From Zimbabwe to South Central, Marshall Tuck has been making an impact on young people's lives through public education. If all goes well, he'll move the needle even more as California's next State Superintendent of Public Instruction. Tuck lost that battle in 2018, but we are confident that he will restore your faith in public servants who have our children’s best interests front of mind when it comes to education so we decided to rerelease that conversation with an updated introduction as a reminder of the highest ideals of politics when they mesh with a candidate’s heart and excellence of character. His story reminds us that, while we all hear NOs, when we are led by a higher purpose we can weather any storm. It is not the critic who counts. If you’ve been knocked down... get back up, dust yourself off, and get back in the game. If you want to give back, share this with someone who could use it. Encourage them to take the next step and leave a 5-star review so more people can benefit from these conversations. 10,000 NOs: THE BOOK JOIN THE 10,000 NOs TRIBE FOLLOW MATT ON SOCIAL ONE ON ONE MENTORSHIP See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Education Week magazine reported in 2017 that among all states, California's K–12 public education ranked 41st in conditions that help children succeed, 39th in school finance and 30th in achievement. So what can we expect in 2019? In a major upset against his opponent Marshall Tuck, Tony Thurmond was elected California State Superintendent of Public Instruction this past November. He was the endorsed candidate of the California Democratic Party and all five 2018 California Teachers of the Year. He previously represented the 15th Assembly District, which encompasses the northern East Bay. Thurmond became the second African-American to hold the office and fourth African-American to win statewide office in California following Wilson Riles. Prior to being elected to the Assembly in 2014, he was a member of the Richmond City Council, a board member of the West Contra Costa Unified School District and social services administrator.
