Voting is so important. We need to support Juanita Doyon for state superintendent of public instruction. Most people don’t think it’s that important. Let me tell you, this state office affects you more than who is in the White House.
Look before you simply pick a name. What Juanita stands for:
* WASL – No.
* Money to classrooms – Yes.
* Charter schools – No.
* Vocational education – Yes.
* NCLB/federal take-over – No.
* Support for teachers – Yes.
* Big business control – No.
* State level accountability – Yes.
For 16 years, the office of superintendent has been in the hands of administrators turned politicians – Juanita’s opponents. It’s time for a real change! It’s time to elect a parent who knows the needs of our public schools and has the courage and the skill to lead real school improvement.
We need her in this state to protect our children from big government. Just vote.
