Let us hope they soon get over it and, for once, provide the leadership for which they were elected. They should have addressed this issue much earlier, but their personal pursuit of reelection stood in the way. Pandering to the basest emotions of the electorate through meaningless tax cuts has been disgusting. This is not the character of true leadership. Let us hope that they wake up and come together in a bipartisan approach to lead Ohio forward.
Education is the cornerstone of all our progress as a people.
It is time to fix schools and fund them properly. The school board has started the search process for the new superintendent. They have hired the McKenzie Group of Washington D.C. to coordinate the search. This firm is led by Floretta McKenzie who served successfully for seven years as the superintendent of the District of Columbia Public Schools. They have also brought on Dr. Nancy Zimpher, Dean of The Ohio State University College of Education, as an expert advisor.
