Light commentary

By NMamlin on Jun. 4, 2007.

A friend of mine decided to enter a “public radio talent quest” by doing a piece on NCLB. It’s too late to enter the voting (and I found out too late as well), but you may get a kick out of his entry. This guy is not an educator, just a dad who works for the federal government in Montgomery County, MD. The audio clip is just two minutes long, so it won’t take long to listen to it, unless you’re like me and then start listening to other entries in the bunch.
