Links to Other Points of View

Not everyone agrees with how our schools operate.   Ron believes we obtain the best results when we study all viewpoints, then make decisions.  Ron will post links to other views here, if you submit them.

Another organization with some strong views about how to improve our schools is the National School Boards Association at www.nsba.org.

Other points of view? Let Ron know.
