Did the Tennessee midterms complicate Marsha Blackburn’s voucher expansion plans?

Did you know search engines like Google are changing the way you see news? Keep Chalkbeat’s valuable education coverage at the top of your feeds by clicking here and checking the box next to our name. In April, 95 Tennessee lawmakers voted in the House of Representatives on a bill to expand the state’s fledgling private school voucher program. It was an unusually tight vote in the legislature , where the Republican supermajority often votes along party lines. The measure passed by nine votes — with 52 Republicans in support and a coalition of 43 Democrats and Republicans opposed. This week, six of those 52 Republicans were voted out of office, defeated by Democrats. While the blue tsunami didn’t crash into Tennessee Tuesday night as it swept statewide midterm races elsewhere , Democratic gains could make it harder for Republicans to pass controversial policies like expanding the Education Freedom Scholarship program , which has historically split the party’s legislative caucus. If lawmakers voted along the same lines under the new party totals, the April voucher vote would have failed, 46 to 49. When the General Assembly returns to the state Capitol in January, Republicans will still hold a supermajority with

MNPS head emphasizes academic growth, collaboration amid audit calls

Metro Nashville Public Schools Director Adrienne Battle referred to recent academic growth and achievements when asked about a Tennessee lawmaker's call for a state audit of the district . Rep. Scott Cepicky, R-Culleoka, leveled sharp criticism at Battle in a conservative talk radio interview last month, saying MNPS and Memphis-Shelby County Schools were negatively affecting the state's overall academic achievement. He also said he asked House Speaker Cameron Sexton for a state audit of MNPS. A spokesperson for Sexton told The Tennessean "all possible options" are being explored and that "nothing is off the table" when it comes to a state audit of the district, which is the second-largest in Tennessee. After delivering a keynote address during a November Rotary Club of Nashville meeting, Battle told reporters she was "not familiar" with Cepicky's comments. She said MNPS frequently engages in monitoring and audits and referred to a recently launched audit of the district's performance and operations, commissioned by the Metro Nashville Council. "Whatever we need to do as a district, we're always focused on continuous improvement," Battle told reporters. "Our mantra is: 'Know where you are, but don't stay there.' Our results speak for themselves, and so anything we can
