Dear Mr. President,
A week ago you stood in front of the nation and spoke the following words:
“That we are in the midst of crisis is now well understood . . . our schools fail too many . . . [But] we will transform our schools and colleges and universities to meet the demands of a new age. All this we can do. And all this we will do.”
We at DreamBox Learning welcome your words.
