It's a New Year, the debates are underway and the presidential primaries are just around the corner. I've watched a good number of the Republican and Democratic debates and, unless I've missed something, there hasn't been a bit of dialogue about the future of education in America.
No mention of the new federal education law, scant talk of the plight of the Dept. of Education and few words thrown about regarding testing and academic achievement.
For a nation so dependent upon the quality of our education system to have nothing said about this important social component of our society is nothing short of a travesty. I'm hoping (but not holding my breath) that we can get past the bravado and bluster and find out where people stand on the issue of education.
