We encourage everyone to attend these events. For those who have read the Mind trust plan you can see that they really need our help to transform education in a way that will help our children.
A Reminder: Floyd Flake is a corporate Christian, a past leader of BAEO and Edison Schools, and Education Reform Now is the hedge fund money branch of the Democrats for Education Reform. These people are NOT for the public schools. They are privatizers, and so is the Mind Trust. This should be mentioned in the posting above, for those who do not know this.
ReplyDeleteA reminder of who Floyd Flake is, but my articles below only touch the surface of what this man has been up to for years: http://my.firedoglake.com/dougmartin/2011/06/27/is-edisonlearning-seizing-indiana-schools-tony-bennett-wants-dirt-hidden/
