"Rollo May, the famous psychologist, once observed, 'When people get lost they begin to run, and when really lost, run faster.'
This observation provides an insightful contrast between our schools, which are running at a face pace, but with a clear purpose in mind, and our legislators who are running frantically without a vision or goals for the future.
The past few years have seen impressive academic gains in our schools around the Whittier Area and the San Gabriel Valley.
Our schools are working diligently and with the clear intention of improving the achievement of all students. By contrast, our politicians are running in a panic, but have lost their direction, as evidenced by their decisions regarding the current needs and future goals for California.
As Superintendent of the Whittier City School District, I am amazed at the wonderful academic progress our schools have demonstrated in recent years."
