Supports controversial new law, 3-year pause in state graduation requirements, new teaching approaches SISTERS, Ore. (KTVZ)-- Kale Gardner is a 14-year-old Sisters resident, soon to be a freshman in high school. What sets him apart however, is that he's also an aspiring politician who has a YouTube channel titled Kale Gardner dedicated to interviews with various political figures and topics. Gardner told NewsChannel 21 on Sunday he became inspired to build his virtual platform after realizing that his and a lot of his classmates' voices weren't being heard. As of late, he is pushing for change in how kids are assessed in the classroom. He said Sunday that he’s a large proponent for education reform and believes Senate Bill 744 will help him and other students that struggle academically.   The bill, signed into law by Gov. Kate Brown last month, suspends state reading, writing, and math proficiency requirements for Oregon high school graduates and has created a lot of debate and controversy.  Those in opposition to the new law call it racially based and say it paves the way to a less educated workforce.  However, Gardner said it will help people like himself, who learn differently. “I know I’m…

It may have lost some of its buzz, and it may seem like Twitter’s Spaces has now superseded its offering in many ways. But Clubhouse is still rising, not as fast as it had been back in January, but it is moving forward nonetheless. And this could help it maintain that momentum.

The Waterbury Republican American videotaped this woman, and others, shouting at state Rep. Liz Linehan and other state and local officials in Cheshire last week. Credit: Screengrab / Lance Reynolds / Waterbury Republican American TERRY COWGILL As Albert Einstein once observed, “The difference between stupidity and genius is that genius has its limits.” For an egghead, Einstein possessed uncommon common sense. Look no farther than the Nutmeg State for proof. A Wednesday afternoon discussion among education officials in Cheshire on safely reopening the state’s public schools descended into vitriol and chaos, as a small but unruly mob used profanity and intimidation tactics against Cheshire schools staff, superintendent Jeff Solan and state Rep. Liz Linehan, D-Cheshire. The goon squad eventually turned its anger toward Gov. Ned Lamont, who was also present and had signed an executive order earlier this summer requiring students and school district employees to mask up until Sept. 30 to protect themselves and others from the coronavirus when school starts this week. You would have thought Lamont had ordered the children of these parents to jump into a vat of boiling oil. The profanity and disrespect directed at public officials for trying to protect adults and children from…

It’s finally happening. OL Reign kicks off the PNW Soccer Doubleheader on Saturday when they host the Portland Thorns at Lumen Field. If you can’t catch the action in person, you’ll be able to watch on Paramount+ (U.S. viewers) or Twitch (international fans). The match kicks off at 4 PM PT. The Portland Thorns come into the weekend in first place in the NWSL with a 10-3-2 record, while OL Reign is in a tie for third place with 22 points and a 7-7-1 record. Both teams are experiencing a good run of form. Portland has won nine of its last 12 matches, while the Reign have won four consecutive home matches — and five of their last seven games. Neither team is too keen on draws, with the Reign only having one (their first match of the season) and Portland two. The Reign and Thorns share another similarity. They have a diverse set of threats in the attack. Portland has nine goal-scorers, with Simone Charley and Sophia Smith leading the team with five goals each. OL Reign, meanwhile, have eight players with a goal, and Bethany Balcer leads the team with six. Win the duels — especially in the…
