So long, fellow state policy wonks. After four and a half great years at Education Week, today is my last day, and this will be my final post for this space. I’m moving on to ply my skills at the Montgomery County Public Schools in Rockville, Md. The state turf and this blog will soon belong to a soon-to-be-named successor.

In the meantime, you can get your fix of state-related policy news over at Politics K-12, Curriculum Matters, and Teacher Beat.

Thanks to those of you who read, commented on, and constructively criticized what I wrote here, and an extra thanks to those who tipped me off to important and interesting bits of news and intrigue.

A version of this news article first appeared in the State EdWatch blog.
