You Are Essential
Oct 12, 2012 - 01:00 PM
Do you believe that people are more important than tests when it comes to improving the lives of all of our children? Do you feel that your voice has been drowned out by corporate interests and faulty logic, that your opinion--one shared by thousands of educators nationwide--has been pushed to the margins because the truth you speak is inconvenient to the goal of standardized learning?
You Are Essential in the lives of the children you serve and we want to make sure that everyone knows it.
It's a simple request. Just take a photo like the one attached and post it to Twitter with the hashtag #essential or to the CES Facebook page. (If it's easier, send the pic to us at FallForum@EssentialSchools.org and we'll post it. Just let us know what name or Twitter handle you want us to use when we do so.)
You matter more than policy makers realize. You are the key to success for millions of children.
You Are Essential.
