Renee Moore Rocks the ESEA Boat

by John Holland on March 1, 2011

Hey Jose,
Last week I had the high privilege of attending the American Association of Colleges of Teacher Education. You might think the honor due to the company of excellent teacher preparation professors I was able meet and talk to but, it wasn’t. The honor was due to the opportunity to see Renee Moore rock the federal education policy boat. It was a beautiful thing to see truth spoken to power so elegantly. The gentleman on Renee’s left is Michael Dannenberg a representative from the ED. Next to him is Donna Wiseman and Barnett Berry. Barnett’s speech was just at forceful. I will try to upload it soon. Teacher prep seems to be exceptionally interested in Teaching 2030.
Overall, the conference was a highlight of my career since becoming a child development specialist.

Renee,
You were fantastic. I couldn’t help grinning and clapping along with the audience, and listening to the supportive comments that were heard in the background.
Barnett looked so proud; you made us all proud.
