- By Marjorie Jackson - The Washington Stand

According to staggering enrollment data, parents appear to have had a case of back-to-school blues over public education since COVID’s onset in early 2020. In the past two years, a mass exodus of over 1.2 million students has left the public school system as parents seek alternative education routes, such as public charter schools, private schools, and homeschooling.

Making Mathletes
- By Anne Schlafly Cori
Buchholz High School in Gainesville, Florida has a math teacher, Will Frazer, who is motivating and energizing his students. What is his secret sauce?
- He is teaching math, not critical race theory.
- He scouts for talent, because abilities vary.
- He puts all the smart kids together in the same room, which promotes excellence.
- When Covid shut down his school, he held his classes in another venue and his students followed him for the in-person classes.
- No teacher shortage in his classrooms; he uses high schoolers to teach middle-schoolers, which has the added benefit of reinforcing the lessons for the older students.
- He knows that students want to be challenged, not bored, in school, so he adds material to the lesson plan.
This math teacher is not dumbing down the material or using diversity or equity or inclusion to teach. He is pushing his students to achieve excellence. "I cover everything the state wants me to cover, but there is no restriction on covering extra material," Frazer said in the Wall Street Journal (7/16/22).
