I attended a KASB event in Ottawa Tuesday. The topic was “Student Achievement in Tough Economic Times” Issues for the 2010 election. Tom Kerbs presented current information linking Finance and Achievement in a very educational and useful format. Please go to www.KASB.org to view the presentation. The presentation is the third item on the home page.

Elected officials attending were Senator Derek Schmidt, Representative Bill Otto, Representative Tony Brown, Representative Willy Prescott and my fellow USD 290 Board Member Brandon Jones.  If you, as a community member, ever have a chance to attend a KASB educational event, I highly recommend you attend.

Please send me an email with any of your questions or suggestions to improve Kansas Schools. I appreciate your communication.

Thank you for your support!
