On the recordFebruary 26, 2015
Thank you. Like I said, this school produces through innovation and teaching techniques. It changes the cycle. What would happen to these children in the public school system under the guidance of the Federal Government for the last 50 years? Aren't they worth saving? Parents, teachers, and local education leaders need control over education, not the Federal Government. They are best suited to nurture student success in our schools. H.R. 5 does just that. It restores local control.
