Just wishing everyone a spectacular July 4. It's pouring down rain right now here in Illinois, but it doesn't spoil my enthusiasm at all. I got a little fishing planned for later today and fireworks tonight.
On this July 4, everyone should remember our founding fathers and present day soldiers, but give a little time to contemplate over our educational founding fathers as well and the events that shaped our particularly American system of education. Spend a minute to research education in your state or in your own school. For all its faults, we have built a beautiful and revolutionary education system here in the United States and that took the labor and dedication of millions of our fore fathers who believed in the same dream as those that signed our Declaration of Independence.
