We continue to stay in the news in Indiana as SUPERintendent Tony Bennett pushes for major reforms in education. This is great to see as you have a teacher speaking out in favor of these reforms and the SUPERman himself pushing hard.
Let’s break it down – shall we?
1. Teachers have the greatest impact on students
2. The performance of our education system has become stagnant while all the other school systems of the world improve
3. There are 3.4 million teachers in the US – is there any single training method that works perfectly for 3.4 million people?
4. If our current teacher preparation programs were perfect, number 2 wouldn’t be true
Therefore, bringing in new methods that can address training for different groups of potential teachers is the logical next step
We will continue to push with Tony Bennett to make sure that every student in Indiana has a great teacher.

Great news. Just in the past month I've been picking up a lot about Indiana's new superintendent, and have to agree that he is an impressive leader on many fronts for education reform.
Good luck in Indiana, and here in Colorado, too!
