Record numbers of schools have had to seek emergency financial assistance from the Department of Education this year, as they struggle to meet dramatically increased running costs with inadequate funding. That is according to the Catholic Primary School Management Association (CPSMA).

To discuss this further, Alan Morrissey was joined by the Principal of St Connaire's Primary School in Shannon, Peter Walsh and Assistant Principal of CBS Primary School in Ennis,Colm Davoren.

Oregon is one of just 15 states that allow parents to opt out of childhood vaccinations for nonreligious, nonmedical reasons. The current opt-out rate of 9.7% is the highest recorded in state history. Health officials say the measles and pertussis outbreaks in the state are an indication more work is needed to boost vaccination rates more broadly.We get more details from Stacy de Assis Matthews, the immunization coordinator at Oregon Health Authority, and Dr. Paul Cieslak, medical director for the Acute and Communicable Disease Prevention Section and the Oregon Immunization Program at OHA.

"From the Frontlines" is an ADL podcast which brings listeners to the frontline in the battle against antisemitism and hate. The frontline since 10/7 has been the explosive rise in antisemitic incidents across the nation and around the globe. On April 22nd, ADL released its Annual Audit of Antisemitic Incidents for 2024. This data shined a bright light on this rise which is on a scale and at a pace never seen before - at least not in the decades since ADL has been tracking this data. This podcast delves into those numbers and also offers a behind the scenes look at the audit and how it is compiled. ADL's Center on Extremism produces the audit, and the Center's Antisemitism Incident Specialist Rachel Sass joined the show to discuss the audit. To read the full report, visit: https://www.adl.org/resources/report/audit-antisemitic-incidents-2024. This conversation was recorded for podcast in April 2025.
