First We March on Austin: Teachers

Nationwide budgets are tightening. As the state governments look around at what to cut the resounding chorus of legistlative voices say school finance budgets.  School districts and law makers alike are locked into a battle for the future of our school children.  

Do we allow the under financing of the poorer districts and ignore those children of immigrants?  If we sit by silently than we are allowing for the building of the new American caste system.

And now, a visit by what????
Ok. I know I promise not to get on my soap box. But this article I read in the paper the other day and a blog post I read around the same time really got stuck in my head.
Kids are taking "virtual" field trips and teachers who spend years training just to be qualified are layed off because they just started teaching. All in the name of budget cuts, and under-funding.
