RIGHT SPEAK: Dunces to the core, the teachers union wants to do more COVID harm to kids; Education Department says 250K tutors needed to undo damage from virtual learning, and other C-Virus related stories

Dunces to the core, the teachers union wants to do more COVID harm to kids:

Yet again, the National Education Association — the nation’s largest teachers union — has shown its utter disregard for the kids its members are supposed to be teaching.

An action item for its representative assembly calls for working with its state affiliates to support a national policy of mandatory masking in schools and “virtual education” for “all families who want it” in the next academic year.

That COVID alarmists demand such measures is bad enough. That the nation’s largest labor union has taken them up for serious debate is borderline criminal. Years of data show that all those demands are not only nonsensical, they’re dangerous and permanently damaging to kids.

To see just how dangerous, look no further than at the grim education metrics from the pandemic years. Students who were mostly remote lost roughly 50% of a typical school year’s math learning, a Harvard study found. Other data show 49% of students across America failed to hit reading benchmarks in the winter of the 2021-22 school year. --->READ MORE HERE

Education Department says 250K tutors needed to undo damage from virtual learning:

The Biden administration says it will take at least 250,000 tutors to help address lost learning due to COVID-19 school closures.

The Department of Education on Tuesday announced the National Partnership for Student Success, an initiative to "spur academic recovery," including plans to recruit the colossal amount of tutors needed to help address lost learning.

"Today’s announcements and the launch of the National Partnership for Student Success will mean more students have a trusted adult in their corner, and more adults are prepared to address students’ academic, emotional, social, and mental health needs," Secretary of Education Miguel Cardona said in a press release . "Together, we can help all children make up for unfinished learning, recover from the pandemic, and prepare for future success – both inside and outside the classroom."

President Joe Biden called on people to become tutors during his 2022 State of the Union address. --->READ MORE HERE
