No Child Left Behind

There is so much going on right now with Dartmouth http://www.dartmouth.k12.ma.us/district/committee/index.html, Fairhaven http://www.fairhaven-ma.gov/and Wareham http://www.wareham.ma.us/Public_Documents/indexthe budgets are a mess. The school system is being dismantled and the children are going to be left behind. I wonder what President Bush meant when he enacted the No child left behind act in 2002? http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/reports/no-child-left-behind.html I don't think I thought he meant lets spend billions of dollars in Iraq and close down cities and town governments because they don't have enough money to educated our children. To date we have spent http://costofwar.com/index-pre-school.html you must go here because the dollars being spent change so fast that as I type this millions are beginning added. So the question is where did we go wrong? I don't believe that fighting is the solution for anything thou we all do it at one time or another. The cost of my fights with my husband or children or friends does not come out in dollars per say the cost is much higher..it is love and you can not buy that any where. Besides the dollar amount it is the hearts and souls of many that have been paid I my children when they fight "use your words". It might take longer and the work might be harder but in the long run we have a better understanding of how the others felt and we can use that in the future to work better together... the concept "my way or the highway" is just being a bully. Anyway I was trying to talk about our children...I am going to ask all of you to write to your government where ever you may be and ask that the money being wasted on anger be moved to our future our children our Federal government has the money to educate every single one of our children and then some but they choose to spend it somewhere else...guess what WE VOTE WE GIVE THEM THE POWER and we can take it away. Get a move on...write you governor, congressperson, the editor of your local paper, the editor of a national paper get a move on get your voice heard. And keep talking until they listen remember "use your words" It might take longer but it will work. Here are some webs with information on addresses to send letters to:http://www.house.gov/
