Following yesterday’s House Education Subcommittee meeting covering HB 0702/SB 0830, which creates a state-level charter school authorizer, most news outlets related this particular piece of legislation to the rejected application of Great Hearts Academies in their desire to open five charter schools in Nashville. We did too. It got me thinking about the nomenclature, having referred to the Great Hearts story more than once myself. Without further ado, a working list (the first two are me):
- The Great Hearts “fallout“
- The Great Hearts “mess“
- The “Great, Great, Great Hearts Cluster …“
- The Great Hearts “dilemma“
- The “Great Hearts Academies fight“
- The Great Hearts “saga“
- The Great Hearts “debate“
- The Great Hearts “battle“
- The Great Hearts “issue“
- The Great Hearts “matter“
- The Great Hearts “case“
There’s a dissertation here somewhere, I’m sure of it.
