In honor of International Women’s Day we want to remind you that speaking up is an act of courage you can do in small ways or big ways. Call your state senator, attend a committee hearing, email your Board of Education rep. Don’t ever believe your voice can’t make a difference.

We had planned an event for tomorrow (Monday, February 24) with SC ACLU to share info about ICE actions in public school. Since planning this event, national experts have made themselves available to discuss this issue. To avoid overlap, we are postponing our event. givebutter.com/kZ8Dwn

In honor of Dr. King take a few minutes to educate others on the challenges facing SC public education this week. You can visit our timeline to see prefiled bills that are concerning. Sending public funds to private schools is a major concern. Tag us in your posts so we can amplify your message.

In honor of Dr. King we ask you to set aside a few minutes this week to call or email your house and senate members in support of public education. You can visit our timeline for the bills most concerning during this session. Don’t know who to contact? Visit scstatehouse.org. #publicEd #mlkday

As we close out the first week of this legislative session we wanted to share that members of both the house and senate have filed a proposed resolution to amend the constitution to allow public funds to be used for private schools. This would be catastrophic for public education. #scpol #scfored

Included in this post is the fiscal impact statement showing what this will cost public schools. Please understand that some of our best public education supporters are no longer in office. We must contact our house and senate members to ask them to vote against this at every opportunity.

Today we have a special edition of look what the legislature has in store that we like to Red Alert. S.62 has been given the fast track for this session, meaning it’s a priority to pass. This bill would siphon more money from public education to give to private school attendees. (1/2)

The 2025 SC Legislature Day 3 bill roundup includes designating school staff members as armed “guardians” inside our schools, installing metal detectors at all schools, and a requirement for every website, software or electronic resource used by schools must be approved by the SDE.

As the 2025 SC Legislative session starts, we highlight some prefilled bills to watch. Day 2 roundup includes installing school chaplains and providing tax credits to families who have children in private schools (and thus taking money out of public schools by not collecting those tax dollars).

Here are some prefilled bills to watch in SC starting 1/14/25: (1) calls for the recording of all classroom instruction (2) calls for cellphone restrictions in schools to be solidified in law including adults and (3) calls for the SDE to create standards and curriculum materials to teach the Bible.
