At the request of Governor Kasich, Michelle Rhee’s pro-charter school organization, Students First, will be presenting to members of Ohio’s House andSenate today during their respective Finance Committee meetings (9:00 & 3:00, respectively).

Rhee is best known as starting out in Teach for America before her meteoric rise as the darling of education reform when she overhauled the D.C. public schools
