HR 3036, the No Child Left Inside Act (chief author John Sarbanes, Democrat, MD), gives states and schools incentives (federal grants) to conduct "environmental education" programs within existing classes.

I wonder how much MORE money would be given to Al Gore if thispasses so “No child will be left behind the (powerpoint) screen” across 20 million classrooms?

Now that was a good story. Bethanie you have an uphill battle but I commend you for taking up the fight. We need more teachers like you. I remember getting little pamphlets on protecting the planet and all that in school.

Same old, same old. How’s the fam??
