The Hopkins 270 Blog was started by Eric Mandel and is focused on examination and principled criticism of the vision, policies, practices and impacts of the administration of Hopkins Public Schools District 270 (MN). Real world events have demonstrated that there are severe cracks in the foundational elements underpinning the operation of this school district.
This blog is the product of a deep dive into the published positions of this administration and the historical and ongoing public statements of administration leadership. It includes references to published research and opinions of professional educators and academics. The blog also addresses the administration’s questionable integration of a political belief system with the development and implementation of educational pedagogy in a public school system.
