The key to a good job is a good education. Current policy in the Lansing has resulted in crowded classrooms that overemphasize standardized testing, and allow student to slip through the cracks and dropout or graduate unprepared. We are failing our kids and robbing them of opportunities to gain the skills necessary to compete in the 21st century economy. We need to ensure every student has a caring, qualified and committed teacher, and we need to prioritize education funding that allows educators more time to connect one-on-one with students to encourage critical thinking and creativity.
