With a little bit of luck

Wednesday, August 31st, 2005

Now this is news! I read Paul’s post, ‘The aim in Maine stays plainly in the game’ where

he reports that “Middle schoolers and some 9th and 10th graders across

the state of

Maine will benefit further from Maine’s laptop initiative with free

home internet access.”  Now that is leveling the playing field!

I’d love to see that at the best elementary blogging school in Georgia! :-) Read Paul’s blog to get all the details and enjoy a very creative post. He must have seen “My Fair Lady” recently as I did at the Fox in Atlanta. So to Paul I say…

With a little bit of luck, With a little bit of luck,

We’ll be movin’ up to blogging schools.

With a little bit…with a little bit…

With a little bit of luck, We’re movin’ up.

With a little bit…with a little bit…

With a little bit of bloggin luck!

BoardBuzz 2.0!

BoardBuzz 2.0

is here! Be sure to check it out. It is now based on a Moveable Type

platforn. The blog has been redesigned for better readability of

entries and more logical oranization of related links. It has a

searchable subject database.Plus, RSS feeds!  It also has a new

comment link. It’s quite nice!

They are continuing to hunt for information on hurricane-affected

schools and for ALL news related to hurricane news related to K-12 in

that part of the country. Yesterday’s post, ‘This is our tsunami’   states “Jefferson Parish officials say schools could reopen by Dec. 1.”  The state schools superintendent says restarting schools is not as big

a priority as ensuring that they are available to their communities as

shelters.

On a personal note, I sure will be glad when we hear from Nancy on her blog at Random Thoughts.
