Connecticut Ed Reform Leader urges business leaders to say something when poor have too many children
“Speak your mind, if you think that it is not okay for a parent to have a fifth child when they are struggling to support one through four – right –speak it …”– Paul Diego Holzer, Executive Director of Achieve Hartford! Achieve Hartford! is the leading corporate education reform and charter school advocacy group in Connecticut’s capital city.
The well-paid spokespeople for the Charter School and Corporate Education Reform Industry are usually pretty good at staying on “message.” Surrounded by public relations staff and consultants and aided by “media training” sessions, the proponents of charter schools, the Common Core, the Common Core Testing scam and various anti-teacher initiatives exude the aura of well-prepared snake oil salesman.
But from time to time, they drop their guard and their true opinions, philosophies, arrogance and ignorance come shining through loud and clear.
One of the most recent examples occurred last week, on September 17, 2015, when the Hartford Metro Alliance, which serves as the Hartford region’s major chamber of commerce, held their annual “Hartford Metro Rising Star Education Breakfast.”
The event was moderated by Oz Griebel, a one-time gubernatorial candidate and the Connecticut Ed Reform Leader urges business leaders to say something when poor have too many children - Wait What?:
