And when we came back, the Ed Tech companies were all there waiting with their bells and whistles promising their digital curriculums will improve the test scores. Education departments fell for it and the kids that are showing up for school are still staring at screens all day. They continue to fall behind and lose critical social skills in the process. It is a sad state of affairs.

I love the idea of a Teach for America type of program where graduates go into districts to help the most disadvantaged students and then get their loans forgiven. Why haven't we done this? We have the resources to ensure every child gets a good education and we just choose not to do it. It's maddening.

Know what you do about children not showing up for school? As a retired NYC public school teacher, I can tell you. Report them. I was required to, by law. I worried. Anyone heard of NixMary Brown? She was killed by her mother's boyfriend. Teachers had reported. We all ached when it came out in the news. It will happen again and again if CRT, "trans rights" and DEI is the totem. Children will be killed by crazed nutcases. Now you know. Behavior reveals abuse. Watch and listen to our children.
