Race to the Top

Tweet from DianeRavitch

I have traveled the country since early March; spoke to maybe 20,000 teachers. None happy with "Race." In DC, they don't believe it.

This has been my experience also. Both of my sons are involved in politics and education. When I talk to their friends and colleagues who work in Washington DC they are genuinely surprised that I am unhappy with Obama's education policy and Race to the Top. As loud as we feel like we are screaming, we need to be louder!
