Politics is my least favorite part of the educational reform process while at the same time being the most fascinating part of the process. While politics at a federal, state and local level will undoubtedly always play a crucial roll in sustainable educational reform it also appears to be the constant cog in the wheel of change. It is always reported as one "side" fighting against the other "side" even though at the end of the day we all claim to be basing our decisions on what is best for the children of our communities. I was particularly interested in this article as I have been following the work of Michelle Rhee and her organization and was surprised by their involvement in this school board race.
