I would have voted for the BSA supporter too. If you want to get my dander up, just start ranting on how the BSA should start gays and the like. Being from a family with 6 Eagle Scouts (and with dozens of cousins who have achieved it too), you can see why it does.

Test scores don't always say everything about a school for me--too many factors to be the single source of it all.

We had some political agenda anti-education cantidates elected to our state school board. My local school board respresentative is a good one though. He is very involved in the community and a great person.

I just read an article from the newspaper back home where the superintendent meets with parents once a week at a local restaurant and people are free to ask any questions they want to. The idea has been well-received.

As a teacher, I've learned that it is impossible to satisfy EVERY one and that sometimes you are darned if you do and darned if you don't. Nonetheless, I still try to do the best I can. Those little smiles each day are what keep me going as well as the many excellent parents I come into contact with.

A learning experience that makes for a well founded and healthy look on life.
