Many of you know my mother is a retired teacher and that education reform is a very important issue to me. The new Speaker of the House Rob Vescovo has strongly indicated that education reform will be high on the legislative agenda this session. Parents and students in failing schools need choices just like the rest of us. #EdReform #SchoolChoice #CharterSchools #MoLegislature #COVID19
“Parents and students need choices. On Wednesday, when I was sworn in as the new representative for HD 6, I was encouraged to hear new House Speaker Rob Vescovo outline his support for school choice during his introductory remarks on the first day of the 101st session of the Missouri General Assembly. The new Speaker powerfully shared his own firsthand experience as a struggling student and high-school dropout who would later earn a G.E.D., graduate from Southeast Missouri State University, and build a successful business.”
“I look at the one-size-fits-all approach our system too often takes, and I believe it failed me just as it fails countless other students each year,” the Speaker said. “We must be innovative as we look for ways to give young people the tools they need to succeed. And that means improving our system of education so that it can help the kids who do not learn in conventional ways.”
