This will be on Novermber's ballot “An Act to Designate School Sports Participation and Facilities by Sex” although I think they mean "gender assigned at birth" #MePolitics #MeSchools
A bill has been introduced to update Maine’s school funding formula (EPS) to include levels of poverty and special education More on this later #MeSchools #MePolitics
Disturbing. It explains social media's propensity for ad hominem attacks and taking personal affront when none exists.

Excellent news!

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.

An interesting thread. #MEschools, #MEpolitics
Missed this entirely: "Maine #AI Task Force
Draft recommendations", final report due this month.
"Topic C: Education Draft Recommendations" starts on Page 4.

A quarter of our local school district’s budget is special ed www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025... #MeSchools
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.

Last I checked, there are just over 550 school buildings in Maine. This will take a while...

Please read and share. This happened to be a 16yo, but it could be anybody.

I suspect most #MEschools already have plans.
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
Basic digital skills (email, attachments, completing online forms) are important, but many kids don't know how to use them or can't be bothered.

I keep seeing that “fact” that #MEschools are dead last in the country. Is there any organization (MEA, MSMA) with different data? #MEpolitics
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...
This does not look to be a good idea.
