[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If this were my first exposure to APE this would all be very interesting but knowing that the same organization that now seems to be asking for increased teacher salaries was last year complaining that teachers were overly concerned about their health during covid and weren't working hard enough with remote learning tells me something about where the group really stands when it comes to teachers.

I'm at the point where APE says anything and I feel like I need to fact check it three different ways before I actually trust that it's true and not the product of some right-ish (for NOVA) wing spin machine.  Beware.[/quote]

Agreed![/quote]

It’s a shame they didn’t just stick with the section about the testing. They didn’t even *lead* with that.

Instead, they started with that Northam/VDOE nonsense.

Tell me you didn’t read the newsletter without telling me you didn’t read the newsletter.[/quote]

Which section do you think they led with? Wasn’t testing…

Hint: Go re-read the OP.

Troll.

School closures / SOLs / VMPI. All BS related to the current election. And apparently the #1 priority.

Section 2 was advocating for more testing. That was the only substantial section relevant to APS. Rest of newsletter was political filler.

You think public school closure regulations, standardized testing in public schools, and math curriculum in public schools have nothing to do with our public schools?  That’s a new theory.[/quote]

Yes, they started with a bunch of BS faux issues about “State-Level Education-Related Proposals and Legislation” because of the election.

They should have stuck with advocating for more testing. An actual issue with an actual solution that can help kids stay in the school.

The rest is BS, misinformation, or filler.

What part was misinformation?  I am still confused about how public school regulation doesn’t relate to public schools.  Do you think that just because the group’s focus is on APS they can’t advocate at all any level of public education regulation?[/quote]
