i have been wondering if the United States will ever get out the mess it is in. Energy, Global Warming, Health Care, Education. the Wars, the horrid NCTE Act ad high stakes testing....all are of great concern to me.

I wonder when we will be talking about the limitations of the Harvard School Business model. The past 8 years under the BW has been the worse administration in the White House.

Corruption and greed in this country seem to be par for the course. I sure would like some INTEGRITY in Government. How about some generosity and grace? 

I know for a fact that greed and arrogance go together. These qualities have run this country for far too long and we are hurty.

Wake up, folks.

High stakes testing is not vald.

We are measuring all the wrong things. 

What ever happened to OBSERVABILITY?

The only way we are going to overcome the lunacy of high stakes testing and NLCB is if we reach the parents/guardians. Those in charge are stuck in a paradigm and they don't know that it doesn't work and will never work.

So, here's the latest from the Arne Duncan. What is he thinking?
