The Prichard Blog Begins

Welcome!

This is our blog, a new venture that will allow us to share news and ideas more quickly. We plan updates every day, with posts about all facets of Kentucky education with, as always, an eye for the big picture. We especially hope that readers will join in with comments, so that ideas flow both ways.

Those of you who know Susan Perkins Weston will be glad to know that she will be the daily voice on the blog. Cindy Heine and I will also be writing on an occasional basis.

I hope you’ll become a regular reader and participant in this new form of conversation about education issues.

  5. Interesting that only one commenter on this blog so far has refused to identify himself, isn't it?
