Obama to unveil education plan, no new legislation
Quote:
|
President Barack Obama is promoting tighter standards for teachers and a reduced dropout rate for students as part of an education plan that, at least for now, lacks any new legislative component. Obama plans to call on Americans to educate themselves as well as their children during his appearance Tuesday at the U.S. Hispanic Chamber of Commerce. It is his first major speech devoted solely to education since taking office, but officials say he plans neither to detail any requirements to achieve his goals nor to change President George W. Bush's No Child Left Behind program |

I saw this on the news today, but they didn't mention anything about DREAM. What caught my attention was that a group of students made some video about the crappy education (i suppose) and asked "is anyone listening?" and that's where President Obama replied he is listening during this speech. Maybe he should watch all the DREAM videos out there...
