The windows are so dark now, I can't see anything inside. No more eye contact. No more silent acknowledgment that I exist.

"We're watching action, reaction, and counterreaction almost daily, and the policy environment is moving incredibly fast," noted Glenn Every, emphasizing the urgency of staying informed.

Campaigner Aysha Hawcutt stated that residents were 'not anti-homes', but believed the Adlington plan was 'the wrong proposal in the wrong place'. She expressed pride in the community's resilience against the development threats.

Missouri is the most populous state without a statewide active transportation plan, despite nearly one-third of its residents lacking a driver's license and alarming fatality rates among vulnerable road users.

Based on how members of the Trump administration rushed to describe Renee Nicole Good, the Minneapolis woman who was shot and killed in her minivan while protesting ICE, as a "domestic terrorist," a "professional agitator," and an "anti-ICE rioter" behind the wheel of a "thousand-pound missile," here is how they might describe her dropping off her son at school just before she was killed.

Oakland Unified School District leaders see attendance rates as critical to their plan to address a $100 million budget gap. Increasing attendance by even 1% overall could add $5 million in revenue. That's because state funds, which make up the biggest pot of money for the district, are based on a funding formula that uses students' average daily attendance rates. Raising attendance a few percentage points could mean millions more for a district searching for a way out of its structural deficit.

When routes are well organized, there are clear directional signs, and speed limits become reasonable. The early installation of warning signs allows transport companies to plan deliveries more accurately and avoid delays. For businesses, time is money. When a truck carrying goods does not spend hours detouring due to an unclear traffic scheme or stuck in traffic where it could have been avoided thanks to competent traffic management, fuel costs, driver wages, and vehicle maintenance costs are reduced.

I want to implement universal school streets,

My local Target was the first place I noticed the shift. One day, a few years ago, a sign appeared: red text on white paper announcing that no one under 18 would be allowed in without an adult. Before the poster, every weekday afternoon, clots of teens would move through the arteries of the store, occasionally blocking them. The kids would laugh among themselves, swatch makeup on their arms, peruse the candy offerings.

While some school districts have simple zone systems in which students are automatically enrolled in their neighborhood school, Oakland has a choice system that allows families to apply to any school in the city. That can mean more work as families go on multiple tours and sift through information about dozens of school programs, specialties, and enrichment offerings - while trying to navigate what can feel like an opaque enrollment process.

This idea was based on the parallel between the pluck and elan that are characteristic of both the early-college students I worked with and that of America's hardest-working founding father. Five years after I wrote the book, I had the opportunity to revisit the field for a revised edition, making it appropriate to ask, after Thomas Jefferson's song in the second act of Hamilton, "What'd I Miss": How has early college/dual enrollment changed over the past half decade?

Tower Hamlets Council said in September 2023 it wanted to take down the LTNs and was challenged by Save our Safer Streets (Soss). The court said a failure to reconsult was among the reasons for its decision. Soss said that "thousands of local residents will be extremely pleased and relieved". Tower Hamlets Council, led by mayor Lutfur Rahman, said it was "disappointed" while London's mayor called it "good news for Londoners".

American families should have confidence that our school bus and truck drivers are following every letter of the law and that starts with receiving proper training before getting behind the wheel, Duffy said.

Hundreds of preventable fatalities and more than 13 million metric tons of climate pollution would be avoided by 2045 if Congress passed legislation that answered advocates' long- time demand to require state DOTs to set declining annual fatality targets - and reallocate highway money to safety projects if they don't meet those goals, according to a new analysis from Evergreen Action.

If you haven't already, I think it might be worth talking to the teacher to ask how nap time works and if it's "optional"-that is, are there kids that aren't napping during nap time and are allowed to play? If there is a group that's doing activities instead of napping, you can inquire about keeping Rachel up during nap time, and see if that helps.

An 11-year-old girl has died after being struck by a school bus in Brooklyn Thursday. It happened around 3 p.m. at 23rd Street and Bath Avenue in Bath Beach. Police said the bus did not stay on the scene. The girl was rushed to Maimonides Hospital where she died from her injuries. No arrests have been made. Check back soon for more on this developing story.

What many reception teachers say they did not sign up for was spending large chunks of the school day managing toileting, feeding and basic self-care because growing numbers of children are arriving without those skills in place. New data points to a widening gap in England and Wales between what parents believe school ready means and what classrooms are actually experiencing

A third of autistic young people have missed at least two weeks of school since September, a survey has found. Meanwhile, one in six (16 per cent) autistic young people surveyed said they had not been to school at all since the start of term. More than one in 10 (12 per cent) respondents said they had missed between 11 and 20 days of school since September 2025, while 7 per cent said they had missed between 21 and 40 days in that time.
