@PamKirby if there was a drinking game for the number of times you said “rigor,” and “testing,” while on the dais, the entire town would need rehab. You cannot retweet and feign like an advocate of play as learning (or SEL aka, learning by doing). #wedontgetfooledagain #OneSUSD

Less than a week into new school year, folk in our “community” insist on court of public opinion being plagued with misinformation, obfuscation, hatred, & distrust. I refuse to live in that world. We elect folks to do their jobs best they can not the lying court jesters. #OneSUSD
If Board members do not understand statistics, student growth, data & benchmarks, we have a problem and disconnect. That this was discussed BEFORE meeting In executive session in advanced and they STILL don’t “get it,” is intentional to mislead the public. #OneSUSD @ScottsdaleUSD
People think I’m being hyperbolic or worse when I say their rhetoric and incendiary behaviors are going to end up negatively. Here is proof, yet again, I know a little something something about this education thing - & the sociology of culture wars #OneSUSD @ScottsdaleUSD #NIMBY

Critical thinking is absent from more parents than children. Yeah I said it. Fight me. Sitting in @ScottsdaleUSD Board meeting to support one of the committees I’m on presentation, but about to bust a gasket. #whoosa #givemestrength #OneSUSD #JesusTakeTheWholeCar
Pam, what does "urbanizing" mean?!? #Dogwhistle Remember back in the day, say 2014-15 when I said that #SUSD was an "urban" district and got excoriated? Why is/was that? Am I wrong in your eyes now? #OneSUSD

I'm sure you have someone in mind, but for the majority of us you're not even close. We ARE happy to have a School Board that is absent of your presence. Now if we could only have one absent of your influence, we'd really be moving in the right direction #OneSUSD

@amycarney4susd and @Werner4SUSD need to be “accountable” for politicizing personnel decisions that should have been discussed in executive session. Board “transparency” shouldn’t supersede privacy of valuable employees. They need to understand this #dais @ScottsdaleUSD #OneSUSD
Very definition of irony…When @amycarney4susd and @Werner4SUSD on FB BOTH cite the need for “transparency and accountability” and don’t allow for all of their constituents to comment. Requesting private personnel information is beyond scope of Board. @ScottsdaleUSD #OneSUSD
Respectfully, take another listen to the meeting. Sorry you couldn’t be there in person. 90%+ of parents, students, teaches AND community members all spoke in FAVOR of Dr. Menzel. #OneSUSD #diversitymatters Quantify that…

The students who achieved tonight and EARNED their awards, especially those of Immigrants descent, young women, and ‘others,’ did so in SPITE of your bias. Let’s remember how you welcomed refugees in our town. Equity is more inclusive than equality. #OneSUSD @ScottsdaleUSD
I don’t give a damn what any naysayer wants to pontificate about or, more accurately, lie about tonight in public comments, this school district is SPOT on moving in the right direction. You comin or stayin behind? #OneSUSD #diversitymatters @ScottsdaleUSD
The same playbook. The same results. This makes no sense to anyone who has a modicum of understanding about the history of this country. That, and oh, yeah, the article is from well before he came to Scottsdale. Please stop trying to shut down diversity and inclusion. #OneSUSD

What is at issue here is perhaps students become critical thinkers, and self learners based on longstanding curricular standards? If they learn too much, maybe they’ll see the hypocrisy. Can’t have that can we? #OneSUSD youtu.be/nmGOXhtUUCI

You realize the world is nothing BUT math, right? There was math before there were textbooks and classrooms. And reading? Well, reading is a lot more than just the Norton Anthology, it also includes media literacy and critical thinking. All of which @ScottsdaleUSD does. #OneSUSD

Let's remember that 2 people cannot derail a movement. We need to make sure that ALL students have an opportunity for a high level education. "In other words, schooling, especially the quality of schooling, is a necessary component of economic growth." @ScottsdaleUSD #OneSUSD

A "parent uprising" would mean a wider swath of parents being heard. Right now we have an echo chamber in which some want a lesser, less safe educational landscape for all children all in the name of "protecting" their children are the loudest. SUSD is for ALL children. #OneSUSD

I hate/love my Tweetdeck. I have one column highlighting the brilliance of the #AERABrownlecture, while right next to it is the EXACT fear mongering they are talking about in the talk from "parents" in my local school districts chirping about vaccines and other nonsense. #OneSUSD
When I highlight the "Daddy/Doctor" dilemma this is exactly what I mean. Whenever I walk into a space, I bring both, and more. I bring the knowledge of those who came before me, and the brilliance of the OG Dr. Rhoden, my mom, who instilled these agitation skills in me. #OneSUSD
