This week is Teacher Appreciation Week. You can do your part to support both teachers and students by joining the Less Testing, More Teaching Campaign sponsored this week at the State Capitol by the Louisiana Association of Educators. If you can get to the Capitol Tuesday, May 9th you can help lobby for more emphasis on learning in the classroom rather than just boring test prep.
Click on this link to the LAE Campaign. You can sign up to help lobby Tuesday or send your State Representative a message on Less Testing More Teaching, or do both. If you click on the "Take Action" button, you can send a letter of support for HB 572 (Which would reduce testing) to your state representative.
Thanks,
Mike Deshotels
