Ed, has anyone seen the Trenton Public Schools Web site? Trenton is really on the move to getting our children the proper education they need. They did the back-to-school drive for book bags and uniforms. I even got a letter from my children’s teachers stating their goals for this school year and welcoming them back to school. Why can’t we have one of their success stories on the front page of our local newspaper?

Good News

The success story isn’t a successful PR campaign or any well-articulated “plans” or “goals.” The success story will be results — more students achieving high test scores and (legitimate) good grades coupled with less violence and no more corruption. The talk — or written promises — is all well and good, but cheap. — Ed. Note
