After Wisconsin "educators" failed, miserably, to win "Race to the Top" money for Wisconsin schools, based largely on the "screw it" reaction of the teachers' unions, ...
Wisconsin's schools chief ramped up lobbying efforts Tuesday for a $23 billion education jobs bill pending in Washington that could stave off teacher layoffs next year.

ReplyDeleteI mean the education they get now is top notch
