I'm a member of of the school board and have been for 3, 4-year terms (that's 12 years for you English majors). I just want to do what's best for the upper middle class.

My Dear Ms.Votesformoney,
I did give you my vote and my money during the last school board election so I expect that you will vote for keeping the 5 paragraph format in the schools.

Willa, I understand where you are coming from. I mean let's be real, all of my students are produced by the upper middle class...if they don't get into college, who will I teach?

So in reality you operate much like someone holding a carrot in front of the turtle so long as you can get a ride on it's back. You follow the money yet you're in education. Hmmm

Ms. Votesformoney, I strongly recommend the continued and emphasized teaching of the five paragraph essay. Not only will it help your school meet its NCLB requirements, thus bringing in more federal money and making your district look good, but the five paragraph essay is a traditional ensconced in American values.
