An incentive program introduced to help fill substitute teacher jobs showed promising results in Fairfax County Public Schools last year, Virginia’s largest school system said.Last year, teacher jobs had a substitute fill rate of about 83%, according to data obtained by WTOP through a Freedom of Information Act request. That’s a 9.5% improvement compared to the 2021-22 school year.Fill rates for instructional assistants improved by 6.9%, according to the data, though the 2022-23 fill rate for those jobs was just over 60%.Joanne Jackson, project administrator in the school system’s Office of Substitute Employment, said principals called the incentive program a “game changer,” explaining that it helped to ensure a substitute covered a class on a hard-to-fill day when the regular teacher wasn’t in school.The school system introduced the incentive program last year, offering hourly pay plus an additional $80 for every high-volume day worked.

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) — C.J. Stroud wouldn’t change much about stepping on the field for the first time against an NFL opponent. Except for one play. Stroud had a short and at times shaky debut that included an interception, Davis Mills threw a 6-yard touchdown pass to rookie Tank Dell and the Houston Texans beat the New England Patriots 20-9 in the teams’ preseason opener Thursday night. Stroud, drafted second overall out of Ohio State, played the first two series and went 2 of 4 for 13 yards. He rushed twice for 6 yards and was sacked once.“I’m critical of myself,” Stroud said. “But that is what being a quarterback and a rookie quarterback is. I hold myself to a different standard and I know that the guys in the locker room aren’t going to hold me down for this. … One mistake on national television blows it all up. But, it’s cool, I’II just keep growing.”Mills — who started 15 games last season — took over for Stroud and finished 9 of 12 for 99 yards...Google está eliminando cuentas inactivas: cómo asegurarte de que la tuya continué segura

DENVER (KDVR) — Three separate investigations are underway following allegations that a Denver middle school locked students alone inside a so-called seclusion room. The reports made it to the country’s top education official. U.S. Secretary of Education Miguel Cardona told "Colorado Point of View" this week that these types of rooms should not be used.

Based on Chapter 7 (aka “The Captain’s Log”) in Bram Stoker’s 1897 classic horror novel “Dracula,” “The Last Voyage of the Demeter” was expanded by writers Bragi F. Schut (“Escape Room”) and Zak Olkewicz (“Bullet Train”) into a full-length feature directed by Norwegian filmmaker Andre Ovredal of the sublime 2010 entry “Troll Hunter.” The film is brought to us by Universal Pictures, the studio that made its name with its Golden Age of Horror in the 1930s. That all sounds great, right?Well, the results are mixed at best. The action begins with the discovery of a wreck on the shores of Whitby, England in 1897, its masts shattered, sails in rags. Cut to four weeks earlier and the Demeter, a cargo vessel under the command of the soon-to-retire Captain Eliot (Liam Cunningham, “Game of Thrones”), is loading a shipment of 50 large crates to convey from Wallachia to London.One of the crates breaks free and almost kills a boy named Toby (Woody Norman), the Captain’s grandson...Latest news
