Time off for the holidays

By John Fensterwald - Educated Guess

Rather than write merely for my own amusement and an audience of one, I’ll be writing only occasionally through the holidays. 2010 promises to be incredibly challenging for schools and the Legislature, so let’s all take a deep breath and enjoy time with friends and family.

I started The Educated Guess  just two months ago. Thanks to all of you who have followed the blog; I welcome your comments, suggestions and criticisms.

Early next year, you’ll be seeing changes to the site, as I turn what has been a one-way conversation into  a dialogue with many voices. More on that in coming weeks.

Meanwhile, if anything exciting happens on the Race to the Top bill still lingering in  the Legisalture (Keep working, Rick Simpson, and members of the Assembly Education Committee!), I may put up a post. Or you can sign up to follow me on Twitter for all the news in 140 characters or less.

Best wishes for the holidays,

John Fensterwald

"Darn, I wish I had read that over again before I hit send.” Don’t let this be your lament. To promote a civil dialogue, please be considerate, respectful and mindful of your tone. We encourage you to use your real name, but if you must use a nom de plume, stick with it. Anonymous postings will be removed.
