Public education in Texas is in BIG trouble! We have a
politician in Austin who is from Arlington, and is the
head of the education committee. His name is Kent
Grusendorf anf he hates teachers! He blames teachers for
his son's suicide, and has been punishing teachers since
he was elected. If he gets re-elected, we will lose our
continuing contracts. We'll also lose our 22-1 class cap
for K-3, and our 30-minute duty-free lunch (I never knew
those existed until I came to Texas!) He supports
vouchers, which as we all know takes money from public
education. There is a lady running against him this year
who has a good chance of defeating him. Her name is Diane
Patrick. Early voting for this primary election is Feb
21 - March 3, and the regular election is March 7. We
have it on good authority that he plans to initiate a
nasty smear campaign against her just prior to the
primary. Those of us who care about our children are
asking that voters who live in District 94 call, write, or
email their friends and family to ask them to vote for
Diane Patrick. We're even asking those dyed-in-the-wool,
straight-Democrat-ticket voters to, JUST THIS ONCE, to
vote in the primary, vote early, and vote for Diane
Patrick. If you have friends or family in the Arlington,
Texas, area please forward this email to them and ask them
to help us defeat Kent Grusendorf. Thanks, and have a
great rest-of-the-year!

I am currently studying for an elementary credential in
CO. I am interested in teaching in ND and was wondering:
does anyone know of any good websites which list North
Dakota jobs in education? I would appreciate it if you
would list them. Mr. Chandler.

Hello!
My mom is a sped teacher in ND and looking for resources on
the effects of methamphetamine on kids. Recently six people
were arrested in the town where she teaches (pop. 500) for
cooking meth...there were seven children involved, most of
them school aged. The children were displaying odd behavior
before being taken by social services, but afterwards the
behaviors intensified...they all tested positive for meth
and so it is to be assumed that they were going through
withdrawals. Anyone who has information, websites, books,
journals, articles, etc containing information or if you are
going through this yourself, please respond! Meth isn't
just affecting the drugs users, it's affecting entire
communites as well as children!
thanks!

This is an invitation to participate in a totally free
event that will take place on September 11 and that will
be, I believe, of special interest to teachers and
librarians. As we are a public library in Illinois with
absolutely no budget to give this event the publicity it
deserves, we are hoping you will share the information
with anyone you think might have an interest.
On September 11, 2006, the Bensenville Community Public
Library District (a Chicago suburb) will present Marion
Blumenthal Lazan live and in real time to anyone with an
Internet connection. To participate, you merely install a
small program (it loads in about 20 seconds), turn on your
computer's speakers, then sit back and listen to Marion.
If you also have a microphone attached to your computer,
you will be able to speak with her and ask questions
directly.
As a girl, Marion and her family were trapped in Hitler's
Germany, and they spent six and a half years in refugee
and concentration camps, including Westerbork in Holland
and Bergen-Belsen in Germany. They were in a cattle car
on their way to Auschwitz when they were finally liberated
by Russian troops.
Now in her seventies, Marion is devoting the rest of her
life to telling her story. She knows that in a few years
there will be no Holocaust survivors left, yet what
happened must never be forgotten. Her story does not
dwell on the horror of what she experienced. Instead, her
message is one of hope and optimism in the face of
extraordinary hardship. She implores us to be kind to one
another, to embrace diversity, to always retain hope, to
respect one another, and to never look away from
intolerance and cruelty. Could there be a more powerful
or appropriate message on September 11?
Marion will speak to the children of the world on
September 11, 2006, at 2:00 p.m., eastern time. She will
speak for about 30 minutes, and she will then take
questions. She will be speaking in an online auditorium,
and there is no charge whatsoever to listen. Our hope is
that thousands of children and their teachers will spend
that hour on September 11 with Marion. She will tell a
story of courage, hope, and the will to survive. Your
students (and you) will be mesmerized and inspired.
For more information, including directions for registering
for the program and logging onto the website where the
online auditorium is located, please just reply to this
message to: [email removed]].
If you have any questions or concerns, please direct them
to me, Bill Erbes, [email removed].
We believe there will be much interest in this event if
only we can get the word out that it will be happening.
Any help you can offer in spreading the message will be
most appreciated.
Thank you.
