Use the Hotline to check on last minute cancellations, delays and rescheduling.  Thank you to those who show up to support parents, students and teachers.  The committee hearing room is always full of highly paid lobbyists representing the state bureaucrats, the business interests and administration officials. We need to be there, too!

The Northstar Standard is an option for genuine academic achievement for our schools.  The Northstar Standard is a knowledge-based education that re-establishes local control of curriculum.

It is most urgent right now to be contacting your legislators, House and Senate, letting them know that you do not want them to vote for any education bill that comes out of any conference committee without the Northstar Standard as a local option for Minnesota public schools.
