Model Tennessee schools after nation's most successful  4:31 AM,
Jul. 12, 2013  |  Comments  The July 9 article "Haslam stands by
beleaguered education chief" is no surprise. Haslam has shown
that he is anti-public education since he came into office.
Kevin Huffman is implementing Haslam's policies. They embrace
the ideas from mediocre public school systems in the country
instead of from the most successful.  Why is the Haslam
administration emulating mediocre systems instead of the top
systems in the nation? Since the top five public school states
in the U.S. are mostly governed by Democrats, political pride
could be the motivation. Haslam is disingenuous about educating
the future citizens of the state. He is more interested in
penny-pinching school budgets than educating our children.  The
results from investing in education are manifested long-term. On
the other hand, investments in businesses provide instant
gratification and help Republicans remain in power.  Real Deals
