What Teachers Are Saying

“I like the idea that they need to do research to decide who to vote for. I really enjoy the discussions that come out of the process. The posters, news articles and other readings aobut each of the candidates are great. I like that they each have different jobs to take care of. The length of time for each candidate is good. (In-School program)”
