“Today’s episode analyses the Educational Choice for Children Act (ECCA), a proposed federal school voucher program in the United States. The ECCA would utilise Education Savings Accounts (ESAs) funded by tax-deductible donations to Scholarship Granting Organizations (SGOs), effectively shifting federal funds towards private education. Dr. Jaime Hoerricks, a California public school teacher, expresses strong concerns about the ECCA’s potential to undermine public schools, exacerbate inequalities, and reduce accountability. Specifically, the lack of oversight for SGOs raises significant worries about fraud and misuse of funds. Dr. Hoerricks argues that the ECCA prioritises privatisation and benefits wealthy donors over the needs of students and public education, ultimately threatening the integrity of public schools nationwide.” Here’s the link to the source article: https://lnkd.in/gS5PTvHA Let me know what you think.

Alumni associations play a vital role in the lifeblood and overall success of public high schools. They can provide high school seniors with access to valuable opportunities in college, the military, the workforce, trades, and community colleges. Additionally, alumni associations can significantly support schools through consistent fundraising efforts beyond a one-time membership fee. For instance, consider if NAHS, with approximately 12,000 graduates (roughly 300/year) over the past 40 years, were to have just half of its alumni—6,000—pay a one-time $50 membership fee. This alone would generate $300,000 to fund alumni initiatives and support current students and staff. Further fundraising efforts could amplify this impact, ensuring sustainable benefits for the school community. Definitely something worth considering. **[email protected]** Online Application: https://lnkd.in/eJfGPYQW

"When it comes to fixing education, Congress should listen to these voters and reject universal school vouchers." Voters nationwide, especially in rural America, have made it clear: public dollars should stay in public schools. School vouchers, often presented as 'choice,' divert critical resources from public schools to private institutions that serve only a small fraction of students. Instead of weakening the foundation of our education system, let's focus on strengthening it. Public schools are essential to providing universal access to education—a cornerstone of opportunity, economic growth, and innovation. Every child deserves the chance to learn, thrive, and achieve their potential. It's time for leaders to prioritize policies that uplift all students, not just a select few. https://lnkd.in/gGn2Zn5J

We’re excited to announce that Learning Heroes (US) and over 30 organizations have come together to address a critical challenge facing the Universal Service Fund (USF). By joining forces, we believe we can amplify our collective impact and build a stronger, more sustainable movement. Our approach is multifaceted, building on the strength of our existing coalitions while encouraging other organizations to join us and ensure the continued support of Universal Service Funds. This effort will require bipartisan collaboration and a wide range of actions—from submitting judicial amici briefs to mobilizing grassroots support and organizing effective communications. By pooling our resources, expertise, and influence, we can achieve a more significant, long-term solution to the recent misguided court decision threatening the USF Program. We need your support to make this vision a reality. Here’s how you can help: Join the Movement – Add your voice and help us grow the champions of this cause. https://lnkd.in/g53hNTXA Together, we can ensure the continued success and sustainability of the USF.
