Regional meetings continue

Had another great meeting Tuesday night at Cleveland, Tennessee. Taking a little bit of a break to attend the Governor's Economic Development Conference in Nashville today and tomorrow. Next week I travel through Jonesborough, Knoxville and Putnam County for 3 more regional meetings. At lunch today at the conference, the keynote speaker was Michael Cohen, President of Achieve. Achieve is a national organization focused on raising the standards for k-12 education. He talked about Tennessee's efforts to raise standards and improve public education in the state. Much of what he had to say mirrored some of the discussion at our regional meetings.

Hope to see you soon at one of our meetings.
