Louisiana is last in nearly everything good. Education is no exception. Our children deserve the best education we can provide. Why is The Louisiana State Board of Elementary and Secondary Education (BESE) against high standards? Their own strategic plan says...
Whose side are they on anyway?

Kanter Like Symptoms
Will Louisiana Department of Health keep the vicious cycle going? People often skip the doctor during the holidays. As Christmas decorations are taken down the number of positives will spike. How much Kanter banter will we face as Louisiana Department of Health helps...
Can’t VS Won’t
Do not let the media or your legislators tell you they do not have the power. They may choose not to use it, but they have it.
