"Like his Libertarian boss @pgessing, @brenner4nm favors public school privatization, generates white-flighted panic about critical race theory and vilifies unions."
They say it like it's a bad thing.

This is a woman named Erin Green. She currently sits on the Los Alamos Public School board. The board knew how radical she was, but appointed her by unanimous consent anyway. She is wholly unqualified to sit on the school board. #losalamos #nmpol

I wonder what will attempt to bribe New Mexico children with in order to get them vaccinated? Ponies? Candy?

“12- to 17-year-olds who get vaccinated will be offered ‘services, products, and unique experiences’ from Minnesota health officials.”
“Walz added that these incentives will extend to 5- to 11-year-olds once the FDA approves a vaccine for them” alphanews.org/walz-intends-t

I'm SHOCKED that the State isn't sharing this information. They don't want you to know how much losing a year of in-person schooling damaged your kid.

Without tests, it'll be hard to say whether New Mexico students are learning and to what degree. @AP @Report4America's @viaCedar has more on the challenge of quantifying learning loss from the pandemic: apnews.com/article/busine #nmleg #nmpol #education
