Adrian Fenty: “What better measure of success than the desire of parents, the desire of citizens, citizens of the District, to continue…”

I think my real sense of pride is to say that I had some small role to create a program where Ronald and Tiffany could sit here today and talk to you about their successful dreams and ambitions.

I cannot understand why anyone would eliminate a program, especially when it is not costing the schools or the local District government a dime.

We have a crisis on our hands, and I am asking today for that responsibility of education reform to be placed squarely on my shoulders.

If it's not broken, don't fix it.
