This essay first appeared in my newsletter Sign up here if interested in Unf^cking Education. In the last decade, a new mantra hypnotized American schools: “Every child should learn to code.” The President said it. Governors echoed it. Tech CEOs funded it—directly or via nonprofits they controlled. The pitch was surgical. It wasn’t just about skills. It was about the future. About equity. About national competitiveness.

This essay first appeared in my newsletter Sign up here if interested in Unf^cking Education. There’s a lie being told to parents about what makes schools great. It’s so pervasive that even smart people believe it. That lie is that student-teacher ratios are important. This longstanding ratio fixation isn’t just wrong—it’s been actively harmful.

This essay first appeared in my newsletter Sign up here if interested in Unf^cking Education. Why AI in schools, as currently imagined, won’t fix what’s broken. This month’s executive order to bring AI into K–12 education sounds exciting and bold. A national task force. A presidential challenge. Public-private partnerships. Federal dollars. Teacher training. Early exposure. It checks all the boxes. Except the ones that matter. Because for most schools, this won’t be a revolution.

This essay first appeared in my newsletter Sign up here if interested in Unf^cking Education. The problem isn’t that school is too hard. It’s that it’s hard in all the wrong ways. We confuse rigor with worksheets. We make students memorize, cram, and bubble—instead of wrestle, fail, and build. And when they disengage, we respond by making things easier or more entertaining, instead of more meaningful. That’s not learning. It’s theater.
