So many of the divisions and false notions of social order we cling to as adults are entrenched in the culture of public education. We want to take our next step in challenging that culture, and we ask for your help in helping us capture and share counter-narratives to today's test-addled, pop notions of schooling.

(via IDEA Voices: Okaikor Aryee-Price on Newark Civil Disobedience | The IDEA Blog)
The students from the NSU view the budget cuts and policies as an attack on their democracy and public education in this country. One of the leaders of the Newark Students Union tweeted, “Let’s show them that we’ve actually learned something in our history classes.” This action they organized beats any bubble test, quiz, or worksheet any teacher could give to assess student learning. This was authentic, it mattered to them, and their passion was made manifest

A Student’s definition of a Successful Student
“A successful student is.. someone who thinks outside the box, share’s their knowledge with others, and takes advantage of the opportunities thrown at you.”

In Takoma Park, Maryland, the city council is considering lowering the voting age to 16. This is big because if it passes, 16 year olds in the city will have a say in their education. NYRA is even launching a big campaign around it.
