In January, Tom Olson, of Oregon Save Our Schools,
put his research together to explain and summarize how Oregon's corporate education reform model came into being. The education reform plan was created swiftly with hand-picked voices and strategists, and the public's concerns and input were ignored. Hopefully, from reading this, Oregonians will realize that we are on the wrong path and demand changes to turn this around into a different and improved model that not only supports a well-rounded and quality-funded education plan but also includes the voices of teachers, parents, students, and community members.
