I am seeing this Empower Mississippi and where some teachers are starting small private schools! Has anyone else thought of looking in to this due to the amount of testing?

Empower Mississippi is a lobbying group that supports the school voucher system. The voucher system for private schools is extremely problematic and undermines funding for schools that are typically already underfunded.

Problematic how? Just curious on your thoughts.

I haven't heard of this. What a great idea. I wonder what kind of red tape would be involved in doing something like this. 🤔

I've never heard of that, but it sounds like a great idea! I think it could be great for students that are struggling as well, as this would help them get more one-on-one attention.

I was part of starting a private school years ago. I loved it and would do it again if I could afford to work for so little money.

Kiss your pension goodbye.

Woww I haven't seen this I'm going to look into it. I would love to do something like this

This was recently posted in a thread I was commenting on. “It frustrates me to read people’s messages from states with very few cases to act like the virus is nothing to those of us whose states have a 100k.” Syntax aside, the meaning is clear—if you are from a small state, you should zip it.

I am from a small state. Our case count will never break us out of the bottom quartile (probably never get above the bottom 5.) Does that mean I am not allowed to have an opinion?
