Virginia parents speak up on the need for education reform
Sherri Fosdick of Staunton responds to the Staunton News Leader’s opposition to any efforts to increase affordable and available educational choices for Virginia families. She writes about the need for greater discussion on the issue for education reform, rather than simply sitting back and supporting the status quo.
Sherri writes:
“The fact is, while there are pockets of excellence in public education, we have a deeply flawed system. However, your editorial suggests that we shouldn’t think too hard about ways to address those flaws. Sadly, your editorial is little more than a testament to the triumph of government-run schooling.
I encourage you to open up debate about education rather than shutting it down. Your readers and school choice advocates like Del. Chris Saxman deserve that much. Education reform is desperately needed in the U.S., but if we follow your advice and blindly support the entrenched system that reform will never see the light of day.”
