Thank you. As I read this survey, I think I remember getting one tailored to board members. I also had plenty to say. Aunt Sal

Fortunately there is now an 48-state initiative in place to provide a national education standard, which will hopefully help to restore the US’s role as an educational leader. Best, AskMissAndrea

It reminds me of the decisions my wife and I made with respect to choosing our homeschool curriculum. We wanted the best we could find and one which followed the classical method. It’s working out well so far!
