#KY funds public schools through a formula called SEEK. It’s been in place since 1990. SEEK will be an important conversation in #KYGA26 budget session. To start with a foundational information, we’re providing this analysis w/additional links embedded.
Timely research on important topics helps us respond effectively and support communities & schools to do the same. Thank you, @Harvard @HarvardGSE
Family Engagement Can Help Ease Absenteeism in Schools
#GroundswellKY
Kentucky Family Friendly schools are proving that engaging families makes a difference for students - and for our communities. Kudos to Calvert City Elementary!
The U.S. Department of Education is a symbol of Americans belief that education is for All.
That symbol, and the reality of coming together as a vast nation of individual states under one national banner of education, has set us apart from other countries and made us strong.
Looking for a silver lining? Here’s the one I see:
“The Republican Party platform, which Trump shaped, also called for better connecting education to work opportunities, an issue that could be a rare point of bipartisan cooperation on education policy.”
Releasing findings from a study examining how Kentucky parents view educational opportunities. "The State of Educational Opportunity in KY".

Important piece here.
Balfanz said schools need to be asking: “Who has a pathway, who doesn’t?”
A #meaningfuldiploma should put young people on a pathway to success for them.
Thanks for rounding us up, Justin!
Indeed! I'm feeling good energy!
First BlueSky post!
