With my little 6 month old Rachael on my hip, wrapped in her baby sling, we ventured to join a protest in D.C. against the ongoing violence in Darfur. That was almost four years ago, and sadly, little has changed in that region. Today, however, is a good day, for if Al-Bashir, the president of Sudan, steps foot outside his country, he could very well be arrested. This may not stop the violence happening in Darfur, but it sends a strong message, the world is watching.
Math Investigations on the Agenda Tonight
Tonight might be one of the last opportunities for parents to plea with Board Members to allow a traditional opt-in program for teaching math.
On the agenda, are two recommendations.
- Gil Trenum’s proposal for the “traditional opt-in” program.
- Dr. Otaigbe’s proposal for a “blended approach”.
I strongly prefer the recommendation from Gil Trenum which would allow parents a choice in the manner in which mathematics are taught to their children.
We have discussed this topic in some detail previously.
