EXCLUSIVE — The head of an influential Senate committee is urging Congress to reconsider the charter of the nation's largest teachers union, citing its far-left ***** ociations and allegedly irresponsible financial activity.
In recent years, the National Education ***** ociation, which represents roughly 3 million educators, has come under fire for mobilizing students and teachers to support liberal activist campaigns, been criticized by its Jewish members for failing to address antisemitism, spent millions in membership dues supporting left-wing causes and partnered with organizations that portray political violence and far-left extremism favorably.
Now, Sen. Bill Cassidy, the Republican chair of the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions, is calling on his colleagues to take a closer look at the NEA's congressional charter.

"Children are struggling to read and to do basic math. Instead of helping students succeed, teachers' unions are injecting a dangerous, anti-American agenda into our classrooms," Cassidy told Fox News Digital. "Parents deserve to send their children to school without worrying that they will be indoctrinated with Dei and taught that Americans have 'misplaced faith' in our institutions."

The United Federation of Teachers (UFT), New York City's largest teachers union, is fighting back against Mayor Zohran Mamdani's efforts to block a city-backed pay raise for education paraprofessionals, after the group previously endorsed him last year.
Last month, the New York City Council unanimously passed the "RESPECT Check Act," which would offer up to a $10,000-bonus for education paraprofessionals.
Though Mamdani supported a version of the bill in the past, he has since spoken out against it, arguing that it violates New York state's Taylor Law, which protects public employees' rights to negotiate issues like compensation. His administration later filed a lawsuit to stop the law from being enacted Aug. 19.

They're drones that are launched remotely, can break through windows, help clear classrooms and have an embedded speakerphone to communicate with teachers and police. All that before disorienting and incapacitating a potential school shooter in about a minute.
The tiny and quick drones are being deployed in an increasing number of school districts – part of a growing school security industry as parents and schools find new ways to protect students and staff from carnage.
Though it's hard to put an exact figure on the industry, it's estimated to be in the billions. Justin Marston, the co-founder and CEO of Campus Guardian Angel, says he estimates between $3 and $4 billion is spent annually on securing schools with tools such as his drones, school resource officers and metal detectors; the Urban Institute think tank estimated $2.62 billion was spent on school resource officers alone in 2023.
It's all aimed at preventing the unique and devastating reality in the United States of shootings in schools.
Parents who lost children in mass shootings are driving awareness and helping push for improved security measures in schools to try to reduce the threat, and they're part of the reason the school safety industry has grown to what it is today.

American Federation of Teachers (AFT) President Randi Weingarten promoted a nationwide back-to-school boycott of retail giant Target over the weekend because the company had not condemned ICE operations in Minnesota — the location of its headquarters — prompting criticism from education advocates and a call for federal scrutiny.
"We gave Target ample time to stand with the communities in which they operate and help their neighbors, but its silence about federal immigration abuses has been deafening," Weingarten said in a statement.
"The issue could not be more pressing: Seven months since the murders of Alex Pretti and Renée Good, masked ICE agents are still in our streets, our schools and our communities, terrorizing families in the name of Donald Trump's illegal and immoral ****** ault on immigrants striving for their American Dream," she continued. "That's why we're urging our members to avoid Target and patronize more ethical shopping alternatives this back-to-school season."
Weingarten also shared a video on Instagram, where she directed families to the AFT's "Shop Smart, Not Target" website, which maps local back-to-school shopping alternatives. The organization launched the campaign Wednesday after sending Target CEO Michael Fiddelke letters in February and March.

Students are heading back to school equipped with books, backpacks, and increasingly, artificial intelligence. Seven in 10 teens now say they are using AI tools for schoolwork, according to a new survey from Common Sense Media. Despite the technology's prevalence, however, students say they're not getting a lot of guidance from teachers around how and when to use it. NBC's Emilie Ikeda reports for TODAY.

One week out from the earthquake that shook Colombia to its core, Shakira is returning home. On Monday, the singer travels to Chocó, the area that bore the brunt of the magnitude-7.4 quake that struck on August 10 with an epicenter in San José del Palmar. It's a trip she's making not as a performer, but as a Colombian.
Shakira is on her way to Colombia to visit her country as it heals from the impact of the earthquake (@ Matthias Hangst)
According to Vanitatis, Shakira is expected to land around 2:30 p.m. local time and head to a local school, accompanied by the mayor and the governor of the region. Her arrival is scheduled for roughly 3:15 p.m., when she'll spend the day with students, families, and teachers still reeling from the disaster.
The stop is no coincidence: the school sits at the intersection of Shakira's music career and her philanthropic one. It's tied to her Barefoot Foundation, which opened its first school in Quibdó, Chocó's capital, back in 2005. In the two decades since, the foundation has built out a network of programs aimed at improving educational access for children and expanding opportunities for teenagers and young adults across Colombia, with education as the throughline of everything it does.
Few artists carry the weight that Shakira does in Colombia, and her presence in Chocó this week is being read as a gesture of solidarity from one of the country's own, delivered in person rather than from a stage or a screen.

KAMPONG PRAHOK, Cambodia (AP) — Sou Sreynich dreams of becoming a teacher. But she knows she's far behind.
The 13-year-old first entered a classroom at 10, an age when most Cambodian children already have been in school for years. Her mother waited until she was old enough to swim, fearing the boat to school could capsize — a decision familiar to many parents on Cambodia's Tonle Sap, the largest freshwater lake in Southeast Asia.
Now, the price of gasoline has spiked because of the Iran war, an additional burden. Unlike outright school closures during COVID-19, the Iran war's impact on education is less visible. But it is falling first and hardest on the poorest families. Soaring fuel prices are making it more expensive for children and teachers to get to school, and for governments to fund education as national budgets come under strain.
On the lake, getting anywhere has always meant navigating the water. Climate change is making it harder, with increasingly unpredictable floods and droughts. Teachers at her school say 10 students have drowned over the years.
If the war continues, it could push up to 23.4 million more children like Sreynich into poverty by the end of the year, according to a recent United Nations Children's Fund report. About 80% of those children would be in Africa and Asia.

NONTHABURI, Thailand (AP) — A student opened fire at a high school outside Bangkok on Friday, killing at least five people and wounding more than 20, according to authorities, who said he also appeared to have killed his two grandparents at the family home earlier in the morning.
The 14-year-old shooter took his own life at the school, officials said.
Five school staff members, including teachers and administrators, died in the shooting around 10 a.m. at Debsirin Nonthaburi School in Nonthaburi province northwest of Bangkok, Deputy Interior Minister Polapee Suwunchwee said at the scene.
The boy also killed his grandparents at the home he shared with them prior to the school shooting, Polapee said.
Bangyai Hospital, about 5 kilometers (3 miles) from the school, said 23 people were wounded, of whom 10 were in critical condition, with most suffering gunshot wounds. Earlier reports gave conflicting casualty numbers.

From the tragedy of losing his son to persevering through his failures as a player, Troy Townsend opens up about his storied career in football in an exclusive Urban Pitch interview.
Turning pro isn't in the cards for most young footballers, but that doesn't mean that they can't have a career in the sport altogether.
Troy Townsend is a gleaming example of one such case. He's worn many hats across his six decades in the sport, from coach, to pundit, to advocate, and in 2024, he was appointed a Member of the Order of the British Empire for his work with Kick It Out to help end racism in football.
Townsend was obsessed with football from an early age, yet despite playing for the Crystal Palace and Millwall academies, breaking through to a senior team wasn't in his tea leaves.
He'd make the jump to coaching, earning his badge at 19 and working with the university teams at Middlesex University and youth side Redwood FC, as well as launching Ultimate Sports alongside Steve Browne, which focused on providing physical education teachers and after-school programs to East London schools.

NEW DELHI: There was a time when Auqib Nabi didn't own a pair of bowling spikes.

For his first U-19 trial in Jammu & Kashmir, the fast bowler from Baramulla borrowed a pair from a friend. When he eventually earned selection, fate threw up another twist. The friend who had lent him the spikes didn't make the squad. Auqib borrowed another pair from him and played his entire first U-19 tournament in borrowed shoes.

Today, Auqib is making a name for himself with a skill that many fast bowlers spend years trying to master: the ability to swing the ball both ways. He has now earned his maiden India call-up, with the 29-year-old seamer from Jammu & Kashmir replacing the injured Jasprit ******* rah in India's Test squad for the upcoming tour of Sri Lanka.

Nabi has picked up 104 wickets over the last two Ranji Trophy seasons, virtually breaking the selection door down with his performances. He was also part of the India A squad that toured Sri Lanka recently, where he claimed six wickets in two First Class matches.
Yet, the road to the Indian dressing room wasn't built in fancy academies or elite fast-bowling programmes. It was shaped by a long journey, borrowed equipment and an obsession with learning.

"My parents are government school teachers. Initially, they wanted me to focus on studies, which was natural. Cricket wasn't something we had planned. A friend told me about the Under-19 trials. Until then, I didn't even know they were happening," Auqib had told reporters after picking up a five-wicket haul on the opening day of the Delhi vs Jammu & Kashmir Ranji Trophy match at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in November 2025.

Like countless youngsters in Kashmir, his cricketing education began with tennis-ball matches. The transition to leather-ball cricket, however, brought a different challenge.
"The most basic thing a fast bowler needs is a turf wicket," he had said. "Baramulla had turf, but you couldn't bowl there wearing spikes. So I had to travel to Srinagar to practice."

The one-and-a-half-hour journey from Baramulla to Srinagar became part of his routine. Hours on the road simply to bowl a few overs on a proper surface. For many aspiring cricketers, inadequate facilities become a convenient excuse. Auqib never allowed himself that luxury.

"If you want to play for India, these things cannot become excuses. If you want it badly enough, you have to do it."
That philosophy continues to define him.

The philosophy kept motivating him day in and day out, but it was his obsession with learning that made him the bowler he is today.

"When he first joined the J&K team for the Buchi Babu Trophy in Salem in 2023, he could only bowl the outswinger. But he wanted to bowl both ways. So I started working on his inswing," P. Krishnakumar, Jammu & Kashmir's bowling coach, told TimesofIndia.com.

"He has a great wrist position, which is one of his biggest strengths," he said.
There were no shortcuts, and Nabi knew it. He started working on

American retirees are looking back on their retirement savings experience and, in big numbers, are expressing deep regrets over not saving enough cash for their post-working years.
That's the conclusion from a new Teachers Insurance and Annuity ****** ociation of America (TIAA) study.
TIAA found that 76% of American retirees regret not starting to save earlier in their lives, while nearly the same amount (71%) wish they'd put away more money overall (1). The report also cited a "striking gap" between retirement and reality, and that variable can bring severe savings shortages to the table. Regrets were particularly common among younger retirees, with the average study respondent saying they left the workforce at age 57.
Future retirees, on the other hand, don't expect to retire until 62.

MANILA, July 31 (Reuters) - The Philippine Department of National Defense said on Friday that foreign state-backed academic and cultural exchange programmes needed to be put ‌under greater scrutiny, amid concerns about the influence of Chinese state-linked institutions on ‌local education.
Defense Secretary Gilberto Teodoro said public scrutiny and institutional transparency regarding foreign state funding in local education were "fundamental duties of national governance" and were necessary to protect both academic integrity and national security.
An investigation published this week by U.S.-based think tank SeaLight identified China's Jinan University as the primary training destination for Chinese-language teachers working in Chinese-Filipino schools in the Philippines. Scholars from the ‌university earlier claimed that the northernmost ⁠Philippine province of Batanes belonged to China.
In an article published on Thursday by China's state-run Global Times, Dai Fan, director of the Center ⁠for Philippine Studies at Jinan University, said Philippine authorities were stretching the concept of national security too far and were treating Chinese-language education programmes as a security risk without providing sufficient evidence.
But the Philippine defence department said China's National Security Law requires citizens, educational institutions and private organisations to ‌cooperate with state intelligence agencies, raising concerns about the independence of academic exchanges involving Chinese state-linked entities.

Days after teenage school shooter Colt Gray was sentenced to life in prison, his father is set to appear in the same courtroom for his own sentencing in a landmark case that pushes the limits of who is responsible for a mass shooting.
Colin Gray, whose son killed four people at Apalachee High School in 2024, was convicted of murder and manslaughter earlier this year after buying his son an AR-15-style rifle as a Christmas gift and leaving it unsecured – despite warnings his son was a danger to others.
His trial was part of a broader push to hold accountable the parents of juvenile mass shooters. He is the first parent of a school shooter to be convicted of murder.
His sentencing Thursday is part of an emotionally fraught week for the community. Colt pleaded guilty to murder last Friday and was sentenced to life in prison without parole Tuesday. Meanwhile, Apalachee High School's first day of class is this Friday.
Colin Gray's sentencing represents the end of a harrowing road that began with the September 2024 shooting in which his son, then 14, fatally shot two students and two teachers and injured nine others at his Winder, Georgia, high school.

The people who shape financial decisions aren't always investors—they're often the teachers, mentors and advisers whose ideas take root long before someone ever buys their first **** et.
"Rich Dad Poor Dad" author Robert Kiyosaki says that's why choosing the right teachers may be one of the most important financial decisions a person can make.
"Most school teachers, they're good people, you know, they mean well," Kiyosaki said on the "School of Hard Knocks" podcast in 2025. "They're employees. They need job security. They need a pension.
"And that's going to affect your brain because that's who they are spiritually. They're cowards. No, not really," he continued. "But choose your teachers wisely."

Teachers can stack a 403(b) and 457(b) under separate IRS ceilings, sheltering roughly $49,000 annually from federal income tax.
Teacher pensions erode via COLA caps as low as 1%, vesting cliffs up to 10 years, and geography gaps that gut purchasing power.
The 457(b) uniquely allows penalty-free withdrawals at any age after separation, letting early-retiring teachers bridge income before Social Security begins.

Your state pension check looks like a safety net until you stack it against real retirement costs. Average annual household expenditures hit $78,535 in 2024, and the Consumer Price Index sits at 333.979 as of May 2026, up 1.6 points in a single month. Most teacher pensions replace a fraction of final salary, and many have weak or capped cost-of-living adjustments. That gap is exactly what the double-stack in your benefits packet was designed to close, and most teachers never open the envelope.

It’s been a week since the Mets parted ways with manager Carlos Mendoza, replacing him with interim skipper Andy Green. It was mad clear from the start that this would be a temporary gig for Green to get the Mets through the end of the season. The farm director will return to the front office after the conclusion of the 2026 campaign, citing the ability to spend more time with his family in an executive role.
The role of the manager is much different from what it used to be. They no longer have complete discretion over writing out the lineup, in-game decision-making or how and when to deploy certain bullpen arms. Though Mendoza had a certain amount of autonomy to make some in-game decisions, they were made in coordination with other coaches and members of the front office. Teams now employ entire ***** ytics teams to work out various lineups and defensive positioning, so any manager the Mets hire will have to be collaborative.
Still, managers have to be strong leaders to manage the various personalities that exist in baseball clubhouses. They have to be good communicators and teachers to deliver tough news and help players make continual adjustments. Maybe most importantly, they have to command the respect of players and personnel to foster a culture of accountability.
The Mets badly need more of a clubhouse leadership presence, but that’s not something that can be remedied this season. Brandon Nimmo and Pete Alonso aren’t coming back anytime soon, so the Mets might need a manager with a strong leadership presence.
With that said, here are a few names the Mets could tap to take over next season.

CLEVELAND — In a season of firsts, Seattle Mariners rookie Colt Emerson added more to his personal list this past week.
It started with a cross-country trip to Pittsburgh's PNC Park, a place he had visited multiple times in his childhood. It was there where a throng of fans from the Muskingum Valley flocked to him for photos and autographs throughout the three-game series.
Then came the weekend tilt in Cleveland, another stadium from his formative years, where the process was repeated — and enhanced — in a three-game series with the Guardians.
There were his parents and siblings, of course, and many of his former John Glenn coaches, teachers and administrators. There were other area fans, young and old, who simply wanted to get a close look at the Muskingum Valley's newest big leaguer.
Emerson took it all in before his pre-game workout routines. Many fans stayed late to catch a final glimpse of him before exiting to the team clubhouse. In one instance on June 27, he even signed a baby's jersey.

Elliot Anderson was the schoolboy footballer so good his teachers discussed placing a bet on him playing for England. The bet was never made - but Thomas Tuchel is backing him to be a winner at the World Cup.
Anderson's journey from the playing fields of Tyneside to the World Cup stage, and to potentially becoming the most expensive player in British football history, continues when England play Ghana in Boston on Tuesday.
The midfielder is the one that painfully got away from Newcastle United but is still revered and respected in his home city as the "quiet and self-effacing" local boy made good.
Anderson's first steps in football came playing with his two elder brothers Louie and Wil, the latter gaining prominence as a contestant on reality TV show Love Island.
Jonathan Roys, Anderson's former English and PE teacher at Valley Gardens, who was also his head of year, told BBC Sport: "His brothers had been through the school and I played against his dad. His brothers were decent, but I think being the youngest of three he was used to getting bossed about a little bit, but he took no quarter off anybody. He'd get stuck right in."

The superintendent of Los Angeles public schools has resigned four months after he was put on paid leave during a federal investigation, saying he wants students to learn "without distraction."
Alberto Carvalho's resignation letter dated Sunday made no direct mention of the Feb. 25 search of his home and the LA Unified School District's headquarters. Two days after the FBI served the search warrants, the district's Board of Education voted unanimously to place Carvalho on leave pending the outcome of the investigation.
Authorities have not provided details of the nature of the investigation involving the district, which serves more than 500,000 students. The investigation appears to relate to a contract the school district had with an education technology company whose leader was later indicted for fraud. The company, AllHere, had a contract with the district to create an AI chatbot.
Before becoming the Los Angeles superintendent in 2022, Carvalho had spent his entire education career in Miami-Dade County Public Schools, where he drew national praise for improving graduation rates and academic achievement among Black and Hispanic students. While advocating for Miami's immigrant students, he spoke openly about his own struggles as a young recent arrival from Portugal working in restaurants and construction while homeless at times.
Authorities have not accused Carvalho of any crimes. He denied any wrongdoing earlier this year and had asked to be reinstated as head of the nation's second-largest district. On Sunday he resigned via a letter addressed to "students, families, teachers, staff, and community." He cited what he called "historic progress" made during his tenure.

WASHINGTON (AP) — For generations, the federal government enforced civil rights laws with an eye toward remedying historic, systemic discrimination against Black people and other people of color. The Department of Justice pressed schools to desegregate. The Department of Education worked to promote equal opportunity and held schools accountable for racial bias.
But under the Trump administration, efforts to address deep-rooted inequities for students of color are being cast as discriminatory against white students. Programs that have long withstood legal scrutiny are now quick to be deemed “ illegal DEI ” — diversity, equity and inclusion — by the White House. Schools that do not comply have faced threats to their funding, and in some cases, lost federal grants.
Civil rights lawyers describe the Republican administration’s actions as a complete inversion of legal history.
“It’s literally flipping the purpose of civil rights law on its head, not just harming Black students and students of color, but entire school communities,” said Michael Pillera, director of the Educational Opportunities Project at the Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights Under Law. “It’s unmoored from the actual history of our country and untethered to the reality of life in this country.”
The administration has opened investigations or joined litigation over a wide range of efforts to address racial inequality. President Donald Trump's Justice Department is investigating programs to increase the number of teachers of color in Rhode Island and Iowa. Grants to districts to train teachers or recruit school mental health workers have been discontinued for mentions of diversity in recruitment.

ISTANBUL (AP) — Far from tango's birthplace in working-class districts and port areas of Buenos Aires and Montevideo in Argentina and Uruguay, dance enthusiasts in Istanbul have built a close-knit and passionate community.
Every night, they gather at milongas — sessions of Argentine ballroom dancing — on both sides of this vast city that bridges Europe and Asia, drawn together by music, movement and the embrace of tango.
Turkish locals, foreign residents, visiting international teachers and travelers keep the dance alive while a multitude of dance schools and studios foster a vibrant tango scene.
Once a beginner and now a tango teacher, Gonca Çetin describes the city's tango community as both diverse and welcoming.
“It’s possible for everyone to find a tango environment that suits them. There’s a constantly growing and developing community,” she says.
