Exodus of public learning in pandemic era across states
A Chalkbeat and AP analysis finds public K-12 enrollment in 33 states fell by over 500,000 students, about 2 percent, as families move to homeschooling or alternative learning. The decline, led by kindergarten drops, threatens school budgets and may reflect broader disengagement and unequal access.

The Air Force inspector general reports Black members more often face investigations arrests and disciplinary action and are less likely to reach higher ranks.

The Pentagon pursues diversity and hate group crackdowns while leaders vow to rebuild trust.
