Despite all the talk about student voice, it’s remarkable how few states involve students in state board policymaking in anything beyond a ceremonial role. NASBE takes a look at that in a new brief. And, did ya know that Bellwether’s Rebecca Goldberg was a student member of the Maryland Board of Education?
Interesting look at homework. The punchline is that it should be about quality not quantity rather than yes or no, but we’re a long way from there in a lot of places.
