Ashley Jochim, principal at the Center on Reinventing Public Education and mom of four, joins Mike Petrilli and David Griffith on the Education Gadfly Show to continue our debate on private school choice and regulation. She also discusses how Democrats' defense of public schools often clashes with families' real experiences, and why clear, consumer-facing information is essential to making choice work. On the Research Minute, Adam Tyner highlights a new NBER study from Chicago showing that giving principals more autonomy can boost student achievement— though effects vary widely depending on leadership capacity.Recommended content Unfettered Choice Has Not Delivered on Promises to Milwaukee Families —Ashley Jochim, Education NextInnovation, regulation, and school choice, with Mike McShane | Episode 984 of The Education Gadfly Show Overregulated charter schools: Fact or fiction? —Michael J.

The Portland Public School board is set to approve the sale for the “One North Building” as a home for the “Center for Black Student Excellence.” The District is prepared to spend $16 million from the 2020 construction bond. Yet, they've never explained how the Center will operate or who it will serve. The name of the Center implies it will serve Black students, but the staff report claims it will be open to everyone. If true, it should be called the Center for Student Excellence.PPS serves about 44-thousand students over 150 square miles, so how will those students travel to the Center before or after school? The building has 10 parking spaces and isn't zoned for buses.The staff report also states “student use will be limited.” If so, why purchase a new building with new operating costs? The district already has too many schools while enrollment is in decline.Learning takes place everywhere in the district. Spending millions on a new building is unlikely to have a real effect on academic achievement.Perhaps while evaluating the building, the Board can re-evaluate the Center's vision with a goal to bring student excellence into every school and tailoring experiences to students from different ethnic backgrounds. Maybe investing in Centers for Student Excellence wouldn't require a new building at all.

Judi has spent the last 28 years of her life spearheading grassroots community projects. The dearth of answers around Marin County's high cancer rates led Judi to found the nonprofit Search for the Cause, now Turning Green, a global student-led movement advocating for healthy food, safer products, and ethical businesses. She is also the force behind The Conscious Kitchen, a paradigm shifting model for school food service, transitioning school meals from pre-packaged, processed, heat-and-serve to chef-prepared, scratch cooked local, organic food, cooked in on-site zero waste kitchens. Believing that access to healthy food is a right, not a privilege, she began this work on a campus where 95% of children live below the poverty line, qualifying for free-and-reduced government-subsidized school meals. Moving to the Bay Area in 1989 and becoming a mother to daughter Erin changed the course of Judi's life. Prior to this, she was an Emmy Award-winning television producer for 25 years with ABC Sports, FOX and Oxygen, founded The Diary Project forum for youth at the onset of the internet, and ran a successful student art exhibition, Celebrate Arts. Judi has been a consultant with the California Coastal Commission around public education for the past two decades. We discuss: The Conscious Kitchen's mission to bring 100% organic food into California schools How food connects people, cultures, and the environment The crucial role of parents and communities in advocating for better school food systems Rebuilding trust in school lunches through education, collaboration, and USDA influence Why organic farming and individual action matter for health and sustainability Learn more about Conscious Kitchen: https://www.consciouskitchen.org/ Follow Conscious Kitchen on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/consciouskitchn/ Learn more about High Vibration Living with Chef Whitney Aronoff on www.StarseedKitchen.com  Get 10% off your order of Chef Whitney's organic spices with code STARSEED on www.starseedkitchen.com  Follow Chef Whitney Aronoff on Instagram at @whitneyaronoff and @starseedkitchen Learn more about your ad choices.

What if public schools were never built to make kids smarter, but to make them more obedient? In this episode, Kirk Cameron uncovers the surprising history behind America's education system—its roots in Prussia, its design for compliance, and why it often sidelines faith, freedom, and critical thinking. He also shares how parents can reclaim their God-given responsibility to raise children who think clearly, live courageously, and follow Christ above the classroom bell.

In his first weeks in office as the Ohio Education Association's new president, Jeff Wensing has faced everything from the Ohio House attempting to override the governor's vetoes on the most damaging property tax provisions in the new state budget to questions about what the legislature's moves to silence the voices of educators by removing elected positions from the State Board of Education and the State Teachers Retirement System Board will mean for the future or our public schools. He's also had the chance to meet with many educators as they begin the new school year. As we begin Season 6 of this podcast, Jeff shares his thoughts on how Ohio's educators can stand up for our public school students by shining a spotlight on their success. SUBSCRIBE | Click here to subscribe to Public Education Matters on Apple Podcasts or click here to listen on Spotify so you don't miss a thing.

Tell us whatcha' think! Send a text to us, here! Thank you for sharing your thoughts on our podcast. Parents' Rights in FocusEngagement in local education is crucial for shaping public school policies. Here's how to get involved effectively:Stay Informed: Access and read school and district communications through websites and newspapers. School board agendas and minutes are publicly available and are essential for understanding upcoming decisions.Understand the Process: Learn about policy development, budgeting, and curriculum approval processes. Districts encourage public input, yet actual community participation is often low.Volunteer and Network: Participate in school events and activities to connect with the community. Volunteering for events or Career Day can make a significant difference.Attend School Board Meetings: Active participation in school board meetings allows you to observe and influence the district's direction. Engaging in the curriculum approval process and voicing concerns about educational materials are ways to contribute.Run for School Board: If the current board does not reflect community values, consider running for a position. School boards make critical decisions regarding education policies, curricula, and district management.There are over 90,000 school board members in the U.S., making them a significant force in education. By taking part in school board elections, individuals can ensure educational policies align with community standards.This approach combines staying informed, engaging in governance, volunteering, participating in board meetings, and potentially running for a board position. Through these steps, individuals can play a pivotal role in the educational landscape.Support the showIf you need assistance with a situation in your area, please fill out our free consultation form.DONATE TODAY!www.ParentsRightsInEducation.com

In this episode, I sit down with a thoughtful homeschool mom who opens up about a common challenge: What do you do when your child doesn't want to come back to homeschooling? Her daughter was homeschooled in kindergarten, went to public school for first grade, and now Mom is wrestling with whether to bring her home again. We talk through her honest concerns—like taking her daughter away from beloved teachers and friends, and how her child seems to respond better to other adults.We also explore the idea that it's okay if your child isn't thrilled about homeschooling—and why your homeschool doesn't have to look or feel like school to be meaningful. If you've ever second-guessed your decision or felt torn between what's good for your child socially and what feels right for your family long-term, this conversation will speak to you.

Clement Manyathela speaks Gauteng Department of Education spokesperson, Mr. Steve Mabona as angry parents and education activists voice frusrations about the dire situation at Alrapark Primary School in Nigel, where classes have been suspended for three weeks.

With education disrupted, pressure is now on Gauteng Education MEC Matome Chiloane, who has promised to rebuild the school in 18 months.

North Dakota's public schools are not perfect, but they are very, very good. Sadly, often thanks to national narratives that have little to do with what's happening in our school districts, that's not always the popular perception the public has. People are left with the impression that kids are being indoctrinated, or in extreme cases even groomed, and that's just not the case. North Dakotans for Public Schools is a new organization aimed at bridging that gap between public perception and reality. Former state Senator Erin Oban is a spokesperson for the organization (and, full disclosure, is also the wife of my co-host Chad Oban). "I don't think our public schools are perfect," she said on this episode of Plain Talk. But she wants the group to drive home the question: "What are we doing to to make them a little bit closer to perfect for the kids in our communities that they serve?" That doesn't just mean making the case for the state's public schools. It also means helping the schools understand the reasonable concerns parents and the public at large have. The goal is to  "build stronger more trusted relationships," Erin Oban said. Though that will include telling some of the positive stories about education, to try and get them on par with the negative things we hear. "The negative catches on so much more than the positive," she said, "and we need to be people who spread good news, not just bad news." Both Chad and I agree that there is a need to turn the temperature down in the debate around our public schools. "The adults have to start acting like adults," Chad said, and I think he's right. We also discussed my recent column about the "tyranny of small rooms," which sees the loud voices of angry people who show up at school board meetings, or on social media, get a lot of attention, even if their views aren't necessarily reflective of the larger public's.

Yet, most aren't allowed out in public without adult supervision, even though, as the article states, “according to Warwick Cairns, the author of How to Live Dangerously, kidnapping in the United States is so rare that a child would have to be outside unsupervised for, on average, 750,000 years before being snatched by a stranger,” statistically speaking.But modern parents, concerned about dangers in the real world, relegate their kids to online interactions in part under the guise of their safety. As the authors put it, “because so many parents restrict their ability to socialize in the real world on their own, kids resort to the one thing that allows them to hang out with no adults hovering: their phones.”If there are operative words in that quote, they are “no adults hovering.” What kids report is that more than anything else, they want play that does not involve adult supervision.Of course they do. Why? Because, based on overwhelming amounts of research, our brains evolved with free play as a primary means of cognitive and social development. And that's not just true of humans, by the way. Studies on animals reinforce the point. For example, kittens who were not permitted free play also never developed they social skills they needed as adults. So, is should not be surprising that human children are meant to play with each other, in mixed groups, without supervision, figuring out how to get along, create games, test their own ideas, etc.If you want a sense of just how important and powerful free play is, then consider just one of many recent studies: Advocating for Play: The Benefits of Unstructured Play in Public Schools,Heather Macpherson Parrott and Lynn E. Cohen. The study examined the impact of increased free play time for kids in school, which found improvements in the following areas:· desire and ability to learn/focus,· mood,· social interaction,· cooperation,· problem solving,· independence, and· self-advocacyAll said, whereas the evidence about the harms of smartphones of child development is mounting fast, unsupervised free play helps young brains develop in just about all of the ways that they need to develop.So, though it might take just a little coordination with other parents, give your kids what they want (even they specifically don't know that they wan it): free play with other kids that's not (generally) under your watchful eye. Take their phones away and then drop them at a park, a backyard, a basement, etc. and tell them to have fun. And if they complain that they are bored, then tell them to figure out what to do, because that's exactly what their brains need to learn anyway.What I mean by that is that it is healthy for their brains to work through being bored, figure out how to resolve social conflicts, and invent what to do next, including, and most especially, adapt to changing circumstances. All of that happens through free, unsupervised play. So, sometimes the key to excellent parenting isn't parenting more, but parenting less.As Max Bekoff wrote, “Play is training for the unexpected.” This is a public episode.

As states roll out or expand private school voucher programs, many public school districts are trying new ways to recruit families and keep their schools open. In Arizona, the national model for school vouchers, families can get up to $7,500 per child. But critics warn that it diverts critical funding from struggling schools.
