The newspaper was pleased to be fed information about

exceptional teachers and students, for example; and most local
business people were willing to help in whatever way they could if
asked (and asked in the right way). I don't know about Michigan; but
educating young people just wasn't a hard sell in Minnesota.



We don't publish honor rolls any more.

They do here in Georgia.

We appoint valedictorians, they don't earn it.

We've always appointed them, and they were appointed to those who earned
it, and still do.

Some places keep talking about abolishing any form of academic measurement.

Some, not all.

Education a hard sell? Not sure we'd recognize it if it happened.
