Ohio: Teachers Endorse Sawyer
Tom Sawyer, the Ohio pro-science candidate for school board who is running against creationist Deborah Owens Fink, has picked up the support of the Stow Teachers Association, which is affiliated with the Ohio Education Association and represents nearly 400 teachers, counselors and other education professionals in the Stow-Munroe Falls School district.
"I'm grateful to have this endorsement so early in the campaign," say Sawyer. "Teachers understand what is at stake in this election. They understand the value of having members of the State Board of Education who will show leadership and creativity instead of resorting to distraction and division."
"Wherever I speak about this campaign the response is electrifying. Clearly people are no longer content to allow those in power to continue to neglect public education in this state," said Sawyer. "People want real discussions about the funding, curriculum and governance issues facing our schools."
