Tell us a little about yourself.: I am an educational theorist with two young children in the public schools. For more info visit: http://www.umn.edu/~athe0007

Why are you interested in Students Speak Out?: I'm interested in understanding what high school students think. I'm also interested in offering a contrast to the pervasive liberal views in education.

I was curious if you could post some experiences or thoughts about bullying and how we can work to take down the issue in our Minneapolis Public Schools! If you post, you are automatically entered to win a BRAND NEW SONY CAMCORDER! Thank you, and hope to hear from you soon on the School Safety Forum section under groups of the Students Speak Out page!

We're getting more members again -- check things out when you have a chance.

The Ning Platform we use on this site has some limitations that we are increasingly recognizing. We appreciate your feedback. Ning is always adding new features because of customer feedback, and we will inform them that our users desire more tracking capability. If they add it, we will too. We are considering changing platforms down the line as the site grows, but will stick with Ning for the time being. If you have any other comments please don’t hesitate to share them with us.
