This Week in Education

Alexander Russo's inside scoop on education news.

Written by former Senate education staffer and journalist Alexander Russo, This Week in Education covers education news, policymakers, and trends with a distinctly political edge. (For archives prior to January 2007, please click here.)

Today's Best Education Stories

The earliest roundup of education stories each day usually comes from EdNews.org, anywhere from 4 am onwards. My own "Big Stories Of The Day" supposedly shows up at 9 am Eastern. But there are a bunch of others that come out later and are often better, or at least complementary.

For example, EdWeek's own "Today's Best" features some great stories that I miss. Recent examples include:

Teachers unions are big donors to levy measure Seattle Times
Law Punishes Truancy by Taking Away Teens' Keys Washington Post
Boys get lesson in leadership Philly.com

Comments

The Gradebook, done by Jeff Solocheck at the St. Pete Times, does a great Florida roundup. Check it out at the paper's web site.
