Area treasurers, superintendents decry policy change “The result would force us into an impossible position: either allow our facilities to deteriorate or return to voters to request additional funding. By Mackenzi Klemann www.limaohio.com/top-stories/...

I think about this comic at least once a week

Commentary: The benefits of cutting Americorps funds are hard to divine. Its costs are clear. In the meantime, volunteers will be lost and children from low-income families in a high-poverty school district will have one less resource available to them in their already under-resourced classrooms.

“Despite the lack of national direction, an energetic group of educators, parents and researchers is advancing an ambitious agenda for learning. It is centered around one big idea: The breadth, depth and quality of the curriculum matter.” @danagoldstein.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/2025/05/10/u...

Opinion Teaching is an art and science. Ohio classrooms should create lifelong learners We move beyond simply teaching content to cultivating lifelong learners and aren't afraid to embrace the challenges that come with acquiring new skills. by John Marschhausen www.dispatch.com/story/opinio...

Can Factorial, a small Massachusetts start-up, perfect a battery that would make electric vehicles cheaper and more convenient than conventional gasoline vehicles?

Draconian executive orders didn't come, but draconian budget proposals could arrive any day now. But nonprofit leaders in Columbus aren't embracing trepidation; they're embracing hope, and one another.

“A study had shown that under the new tariffs, working-class people would lose almost 3X as much of their disposable income as the highest earners. These were the margins that determined their places in the American economy: a slight price increase, a brief delay.” www.nytimes.com/2025/05/04/u...

The consortium is building charging stations where you might actually want to hang out. And it’s expanding rapidly.

“The reason consumers haven’t felt many of the tariff effects yet is because it takes 20 to 40 days for a container ship to travel across the Pacific Ocean. By late May or early June, consumers could start to see empty shelves, and layoffs could occur for retailers and logistics industries.”

Experts say that the effects of high tariffs on Chinese products will become more obvious in the coming weeks, as a tidal wave of change stemming from canceled orders in Chinese factories works its way around the world to the U.S.
