Ok, it's just a couple of days before we have to decide what some are calling "the fate of our county." Part of that fate is what's on the slate for public education. Both candidates have education as part of their platforms. I went to each candidate's pages to see their education plans. I am bringing my findings to you in a way that is as unbiased as I can manage. Ultimately we all want the same thing-- for our children to have the best education possible that will help them be adults that contribute to the betterment of society. We just seem to have different opinions on how to get there. (Compromise, anyone??)

The result is this episode; Jen and Jimese were busy being teachers, so since the election is literally in just a few days, I decided to throw caution to the wind and just went for it and recorded this episode by myself. I also decided not to spend 6 hours editing it. (Which maybe I should have because I sure say "um" and "uh" a lot. You know how it is thinking on the fly. ) I wanted to get this information out there for anyone concerned about what state our schools may be in after November 5. The links to the websites I used to create this episode can be found on our website, TransparencyinTeaching.com

I hope you get some value out of my solo discussion. Please share this episode (soon!) with anyone you think might find value. While you're at it, could you give us a nice rating, too?

Now, take your mighty pen and go forth and vote your conscience.
