Subject: Dear Teacher

The percentage of those browsing Minnesota Education Reform News from K-12 schools (k12.mn.us domains) has been higher than usual lately. If you are a teacher who opposes the standards process and favors scrapping the whole thing and starting over, I have probably already read your comments on the MAPSSS petition.

As a member of the Academic Standards Committee, I would be interested in your comments if you are a teacher who is supporting the Academic Standards process with constructive criticism, praise, or tacit approval. Please take a moment to sign the new Minnesota Education Reform News guestbook at http://www.antibs.com/gbook/view/11681. You can submit either public or private comments, and the latter will be kept confidential. You may remain anonymous. Thank you.
