61. As the father of I child with a disability, I thank you!

There is power in your story and make sure the school board members remember it. Talk to your legislators at every opportunity. Band together with other parents and teachers, keep pressing your truth.

"Education is the silver bullet. Education is everything. We don't need little changes, we need gigantic, monumental changes. Schools should be palaces. Competition for the best teachers should be fierce; they should be making six figure salaries. Schools should be incredibly expensive for government and absolutely free of charge to it citizens, just like national defense."
Rob Lowe from the West Wing
