About Me:
There is always so much to say in describing ones self, but
it always seems weird to me. I feel that sometimes the
context in how you are perceived varies from person to
person... Anyway, I am constantly confronted with issues that are keeping the achievment gap alive in our school system. It really bothers me that there are soo many inteligent people working so hard in our educational system and yet change is sooo slow. The one barrier that I only recently learned about is Prop. 13 and how that has gravely affected CA public schools.
Enlightenment of how things are compared to how we could create them seems to be so difficult for certain people to understand or to be able to listen to with empathy.
However, I am hopeful that we can "close the gap" in public schools through individuals who have the power to make change and the compassion to care.
