Our Beliefs
• All students can learn and achieve at very high
levels
• My responsibility is to insure all students do learn
and achieve
• Teachers who take responsibility for their
students learning see much higher results than
those who blame
• All teachers can become effective if they want to
and work hard to learn how
• Schools that perform low are typically focused on
adult issues and not focused upon their students
needs - we can change that if we choose to

Business Leader’s Response
• “If 70% of students are not qualified for the
military – What makes you believe they are
qualified for jobs in corporate America, industry of
middle class jobs”?
• The Truth – 70% of students in United States are
headed towards a life of public assistance of one
type or another.
• The Problem – Can 30% of workers pay for 70% of
society being on public assistance. In addition, can
the same 30% of workers float pensions, social
security, medicare, etc.?
• The Answer – NO!! America is in trouble
