The AWSP on Political Action
David Montague, a principal out of Kennewick, wrote a commentary for the Spring 2008 edition of The Principal News talking about the reasons that school administrators should be active in the political process. It’s a good read for teachers as well, and I’m thinking that I might try some of his ideas with candidates from my legislative district.
You can’t find the article on-line, regrettably, but Jerry Bender, director of governmental relations for the AWSP, keeps a blog here that "covers" legislative issues. (memo to Jerry: no posts since January? C'mon, man, there's action out there!)
Given the realities of today, I think that engagement is more important than ever. I'm glad that the professional organizations make Olympia accessible.

Actually, we do have the article available in the publications section of the AWSP Web site (www.awsp.org). The current issue, along with recent previous issues, are all available as downloadable PDFs.
And yes, Jerry needs to get to updating that blog! (He's a busy guy, though!)
