EDUCATION

Imagine a computer engineer trying to design the next generation of tablet computers using mainframe hardware from the Eisenhower administration. Or- U.S. automakers trying to out-engineer foreign competitors on an assembly line with equipment from the 1960s.

Unfortunately, just such antiquated facilities and barriers to innovation exist today in precisely the institutions that can least afford it: our nation's public schools.

Tragically, children in the poorest school districts often attend schools with crumbling ceilings, overcrowded classrooms, and facilities that lack basic wiring infrastructure for computers and other modern day technology. That's no way to provide a world class education- and in today's global economy, a country that out educates America will outcompete us.

The path to prosperity, the way to win the future, is to invest wisely in schools, remembering that children get only one chance at an education.

You may ask what does this have to do with you in the moving business or whatever business you work in....it has everything to do with you...
IT IS ALL CONNECTED...
WE ARE ALL CONNECTED..

In my opinion there is nothing more important than improving our schools and the education system.

Teachers must be given the tools so they can begin to reform our system and be regarded as nation builders not just teachers.

Get involved, stand up, be heard...this effects each and everyone of us.
