Hello Again
Hello everyone, I have not posted for a long time. I have been logging on and reading all your comments. I guess after the Mayors race things have been a little low key. I am glad to see that most of you are supporting Michael. PLEASE come out and vote, we can't think that this election is already over. We, you can't take it for granted, the only thing that can happen is that when we all vote for Michael as I am, and asking everyone else to vote for him, he can get high totals that will help him and his administration govern. This is our city,a great city, and as successful as he is, that is as successful our city will be. Lets not be lulled to sleep and think this is already over. We only need to vote and I am sure he will be able to win BIG. Lets send him to the mayors office with great numbers. I am sure things will be heating up soon in the presidental election, which is next year. But again we cannot forget this election that is extremly important to all of us. Ty Bob


Since you're here...
Bob, I am concerned with the No Child Left Behind Law. As a parent of a small child, I feel that this law is poorly funded and does not accurately tell how a school is really educating our children. Tests should not be the be all and end all. There are many ways to teach children. When I was a student, we had physical education classes, music and art as well as history, science, math, English, foreign languages and reading. If we as a nation cut out all subjects but the core subjects we are not really teaching our children. Art music and physical education teach children creativity, healthy lifestyle and how to be a well rounded person. I also believe that the law while it is good in theory does not translate well into practice.
Respectfully,
Ilana a/k/a Mrs. Zorro
