Disturbing. It explains social media's propensity for ad hominem attacks and taking personal affront when none exists.

Because #Maine no longer allows non-medical exemptions, the state’s measles vaccination rate rose from 95 to 98% (pre/post-pandemic). Good job, Maine!

I have not heard of a 9 - *16* facility anywhere else and am not sure I see the point. I wonder how UMPI, UMFK, and NMCC would fit in? #MEschools #MEpolitics #TheCounty

If you haven't already seen this story, take a few minutes to check it out. One wonders if the student would also be allowed to use (never cited, though) her religious text and beliefs as "proof" in a science course.

Maine teachers/admins will continue to follow IEPs and 504 Plans as they always have.
Parents will be the ones most affected if they have problems.
Other states? Don’t know.

It would have been nice to include interviews with actual teachers, both SpecEd and regular. #MEschools

In my experience, SpecEd students are usually included in regular classrooms. They may have a separate classroom for one-on-one instruction, but certainly not for the full day. And not all students are seen there. So much depends on the student's IEP/504 Plan. #MEpolitics #MEschools

What happens to school budgets when Mainers vote ‘no’? At least a dozen school districts saw budget rejections this year. Here’s how they’re trying to move forward.

Voters’ ability to easily overturn an approved school budget at the ballot box despite knowing absolutely nothing about it is a serious problem for #MEschools. #MEpolitics themainemonitor.org/rejected-sch...

All Maine students now get free school lunches. What does that mean for poverty data? A number of schools have adopted the Community Eligibility Provision, which looks at reliance on public benefits such as SNAP and TANF.

Maine did over a year ago #MeSchools www.pressherald.com/2024/03/10/a...
