VSS revs up the call to bridge the gaps!

Susan Patrick begins the morning by highlighting international efforts to improve access to education around the world. The gist is that the US is falling behind because of the speed with which other countries are moving toward better access and systemwide professional development in elearning. Susan challenges us to keep focusing on providing a world class education to all kids. In one example, the state of Georgia, there are over 400 high schools and only 88 qualified physics teachers. How else can the US provide quality education to our students without implementing blended and virtual education?
