Florida Commissioner of Education Pam Stewart Emails FL Teachers – New Name for Standards & Tests #MoreGates #Florida ?
I am a teacher in Florida.
Today, during spring break, a friend and colleague encouraged me to log into my school email and read a letter from our FL Commissioner of Education, Pam Stewart.
Her letters tend to come wrapped in much controversy, so I took the plunge and opened the email. Here is her letter below. I will reserve judgement, except to share a few info links below the letter (to give it a frame of reference, ya know).
I am assuming sharing is allowable as our Commissioner’s communication department preempted the letter with the words: “We encourage you to share this information with your colleagues and your students’ families.”
So, here is me sharing. What do you think?
I have already heard from one parent who responded with links re the Gates connection. See links below Commissioner Stewart’s letter:
