Michigan has the highest percentage of charter schools run by for-profit corporations in the nation. Michigan must pass legislation that increases transparency for charter schools says the former president of the State Board of Education.

Schools should be safe places in which children learn, socialize, and grow. It is time for the Michigan legislature to heed the call of Michiganders on the issue of common sense gun reform.

We know one sure way to improve learning, and that’s free, high-quality preschool. We need to expand it so every eligible child has access.

Michigan’s state school superintendent and president of the state school board argue that students shouldn’t take the typical standardized test, the M-STEP, and instead use benchmark tests that give teachers faster results.

The co-president of the State Board of Education takes a meat cleaver to a bill that would grade schools like they were fifth-graders.
