The League of Women Voters Education Team blog
Hello Leaguers,
Last June in Dallas, we held an Education caucus to gauge the interest in sharing information about school choice and accountability. There were 92 League members from 32 states in attendance. We agreed to form national committees to track legislation and advocacy efforts regarding privatization of our public schools.
We have now launched a League Education Issues blog. We ask for your help in advertising the blog in your communities. Please let your membership know that they can subscribe and contribute to a better understanding of what is occurring in each state.
