Please allow Jack to rest in peace... He has served well

Rest in Peace Jack.

To those who continue to disingenuously evoke the name of a dead man and pretend they shared insights with former Council Jack Drakeford, just stop it! It is disrespectful, offensive, and borders on the obscene! You treated him with such disrespect in the Council meetings, not wanting to even listen to him when it was his time to comment! There are some of us, who came to Council Meetings back then and remember. Even then, change was a struggle, a glimmer of hope,and Jack's was the One lone voice refusing to sellout the people that had put him there.
You really must stop using the name and memory of a dead man to peddle your snake oil and have Our Community drink your Kool-Aid. We all have learned, Kool-Aid is not healthy and snake oil never does what it is sold to do.

Some of our Councilman's ideas are preserved.


The Ten Finger Method Must Be Revived!

We should all post this as our status' across the country: 

CHILDREN MUST BE TAUGHT TO "type or key" IN THE 10 FINGER METHOD!

Online Standardized Tests are timed. The tests contain timed writing in addition to math computations. Time will run out even for those who would have mastered the information. Many adults still use the hunt and peck method of "typing or keying" . Keyboarding classes were removed from most schools years ago. 

Why is America pretending that children have been taught the skills needed to succeed on these tests? Why are so many teachers and administrators remaining silent?

So Bring on the Mavis Beacon!
