In the next several months there will be major happenings in the k12 education world in North Dakota. An election will occur. A legislative session will begin. A lawsuit on school funding is likely to be filed. The federal election will define the future of No Child Left Behind and the impact of that on ND school children. There is likely to be an attempt to change how the DPI operates in light of the incumbent re election. All of these things will necessitate comment and there is no other place where I and others can comment on these and other issues in k12 education. I intend to regularly add items from the current news that impact our children. I do intend to offer my observations in both a serious and humorous mode to make the point that changes in education are always just over the horizon and we should all be ready to analyze and react to them.
