  • If You Want Something Done Right: CEA Steps into Thompson’s Union Negotiations0

    • April 22, 2015

    After observing many of them on the playground, I can say that bullies are interesting creatures. Usually, they figure they can just push you around without any resistance. But stand up to them just a little, and they have to reevaluate. That reevaluation usually involves a two-step process. First, they try out nasty underhanded tactics […]

    I feel like we have few distinct tracks here on Little Eddie’s edu-blog.

  • Whichever Way You Look, Colorado Seems to be Stuck in a Testing Rut0

    • April 14, 2015

    I came across a story in yesterday’s Los Angeles Times under the headline: “Majority of California’s Latino voters highly value school testing.” Given the state of affairs in Colorado, how could something like that escape my attention? A majority of Latino voters, 55%, said mandatory exams improve public education in the state by gauging student […]
