Respect that teachers are the experts in education!

The Issue

Daily, good teachers are leaving the classroom dismayed that public schools have abandoned the idea of learning and now are mandated to teach to the test while further disrespecting, marginalizing and manipulating classroom teachers! Help us demand that the US Department of Education put teachers in the discussions on policy-not more politicians!
