    I thought it is worth sharing this. She starts out low key but gets really fired up towards the end.

    I’m shocked they let her finish, too, but I guess with all the videos….

    Would love to know how the next speech will be reviewed beforehand.

    Yes unfortuantely I don’t know the school or where it was. But have to say that girl has some courage and hopefully a bright future!

    good luck!  The sad part is… she’s right – most people don’t get it, I’m hoping they do.n’t consider it a “homeschooler, Holier (sp???) than thou” post, but instead an opportunity to see that they need to be vigilant that their sweet kiddos are being taught how to test and not how to learn – perhaps it’ll open dialog – would LOVE that.

    She should run for president. Very courageous, and spot on.
