Shelters that house unaccompanied minors are bracing for "Freaky Friday," the start of an ICE operation that will first issue letters to children, seeking to pressure them to return to the countries they've fled in exchange for a cash payment. If they decline, their parents will be targeted by ICE.

Yeah that’s the part I’m worried about.

I have undergrads - teaching MA students would be a mess.

But I’m doing ~13 handwritten closed book assessments. Some multi choice/matching quizzes, some reflection short essays, depending on the content. No other exams or assignments except one group presentation

I can’t believe how bad the handwriting is

Thank you for your work on this

Does your data go down to a municipality level? Or do you just have totals by state?

And if they had an ounce of knowledge of education policy and finance they’d know that it does not work that way at all… certainly not for cities heavily reliant on per-pupil state funding!

😫

I could also pay a few dollars for one of the very few glimmers of hope in our media hellscape

Lighten up

Yes but they rebranded a few years after that it seems en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/College...

so many dead canaries and we just keep on mining

Good point. Canceled

Ty this post inspired me to subscribe

Streaming service. College humor rebranded to dropout. But while I associated CH back in the day with raunchy/bro stuff (?) dropout has a more wholesome/woke/nerd vibe (even when it’s raunchy lol)

And one mundane, but still terrible, consequence is losing millions in funding for the (still mostly immigrant) children who remain

Chelsea school enrollment drops as ICE cracks down on Mass. Hundreds of students have left Chelsea public schools this year, as families exit a community — and a state — that’s become a prime target for immigration enforcement.

Trump & ICE are terrorizing our communities to the point that students are too afraid to go to school. Absolutely shameful.

Criminalizing immigrant families does nothing to keep our communities safe, and our students, parents, & educators deserve better.

Suddenly, subscribing to dropout feels like not only a small joy in my life but also a political act

Massachusetts folks: Regular reminder to please call LUCE at 617-370-5023 if you suspect ICE is in your area. Even if you see someone get snatched, call and report vehicle details and plate numbers. Cataloging vehicles used by ICE can make future verification and warning easier.

I was interviewed by @wbur.org about this really critical issue - border policy and ICE has caused a 300-student drop (5%) in Chelsea Public Schools' enrollment, which could mean losing $6 million in state funding next year. We desperately need the state to use Fair Share funding to fill this gap.

Chelsea City Councilor @robertoj.bsky.social talks about how our voter registration cutoff disenfranchises renters. No eligible voter should be turned away. #mapoli

The current #ICE surge in #Massachusetts hit #Milford hard this weekend when #GustavoOliveira, a 16 year old boy with no criminal record, was abducted. His #community showed up for him! If you live in MA, please consider getting #LUCE trained and if you see ICE, call 617-370-5023.

Ahh I see

I remember them speaking out against his confirmation

Why in gods name was this important enough to send me a push notification Boston Globe

According to @massgovernor.bsky.social Healey, the Democratic Party is all about cutting taxes. What world is she living in? This is why we fail and the GOP keeps cutting into our numbers.

Meanwhile when we come up short what gets cut is programs helping low and middle income families. 😡

I hate how the prevalence of AI makes me judge acquaintances for writing social media posts that I suspect to be AI. It’s not even that I’m annoyed that they’re using AI, I’m annoyed that now I’m always thinking about the possibility

Its not uncommon in my city but I think its more of a before-school childcare situation for parents who start work early

Phone carriers should start a new thing where a dumb phone and smart phone can share a phone number and they don’t charge extra for the dumb phone service (talk only, no text)

Where in NH?? I have to know
