Today I was fortunate enough to be visited by Katie Bachmeyer from Sentaor Johnson's office. We spoke about funding issues, as well as, the direction of education for the future. We discussed the possibility of more of a cut for next year's budget and..........what that would force our school to have to do. Also, we spoke about No Child Left Behind and how it seems that it is becoming increasing more difficult to attain the marks written in the law. The education issue has been put on the back burner for now as Capital Hill is deciding on the debt ceiling, which is unfortunate in more ways that one.
It was nice to see the Senator Johnson is sending out his staff to speak with many of us who are affected by the items that are pressing us today. I believe it will be important to keep in contact with our national legislators over the coming months and years.
