While the Indiana governor acts like he’d be a great presidential candidate I have a totally different opinion.

Yesterday we watched a program with various public school commissioners discussing the initiatives taken by their state to improve the quality of education.

To hear the man from Indiana discuss that state was quite an eye opener. He considered their public school system a total disaster.

The gov can strut around like a bantam rooster but he has nothing to his credit, IMO.

Flame away!

One guy's opinion ~ the NEA has been on an anti-Indiana campaign since the electorate voted for a cap on property taxes a few decades back.

I'd take a good look at what that "one guy"'s relationship has been with the NEA in the past. Most professional "educators", like that "one guy" continue to mouth the NEA mantra no matter how far they've advanced in that business.

It's really pitiful.

BTW, I have found, though, in digging through statistical reports, that public schools in Indiana with substantial African-American presence usually have low scores ~ just like everywhere else.

If you have a solution to this problem let us hear about it.

And was this individual a conservative or liberal?

I would recommend being very skeptical when considering the opinion of an education bureaucrat.

What’s your point? The public schools in Indiana ARE a disaster.
