FL's Department of Health is considering eliminating school vaccine requirements for diseases including chickenpox, Hep B, Hib, and more. These changes could put students, educators, and communities at risk of preventable illness. Public comments are open through 10/19: bit.ly/4i5hNol

FL's history with school vouchers started with a focus on parents of children with disabilities. Today, a @propublica.org investigation reveals that more than half of FL's private schools say they don't serve students w/ disabilities. 🔗 bit.ly/4AbYsIn

🚨 FL districts took on $1.4B in short-term debt to keep schools running—while nearly $4B went to vouchers last year w/o oversight. Students who stay in public schools don't deserve less. Every student deserves a high-quality education. 🔗 bit.ly/3TGGTQz

Morning thought: Hurricane Isaias is bearing down on the panhandle. Public schools have been converted to shelters, staffed by school employees, to keep citizens safe and secure. Be safe, we will check in after the storm. #walkandtalkwithspar #FundOurFutureFL #PublicSchoolProud

While taxpayer-funded voucher schools can cherry-pick students who fit their "type," FL's public schools must serve every student who walks through their doors. That’s not a system designed to help ALL students succeed. 🔗 bit.ly/4ydcrMb

This election - two extremely different paths for education in FL. One is a profit driven model w AI Virtual Reality teaching kids. The other is a renaissance - invest in public schools, raise pay, & support classroom instruction. The choice is clear. - vote for @davidjollyfl !

How can you measure results when the rules for measuring them differ? FL's public schools report student outcomes every year. But the state hasn’t made voucher school test scores public since 2023-24. We can vote for change. Get the facts & plan to vote: bit.ly/45ramjA
