Alcona Democrats have great ideas for education

On Sunday, August 1, I drove up the Sunrise Highway (Rte 23) to meet with the Alcona County Democrats. Candidates for State House and Senate spoke and I had an opportunity to share my ideas. Students from Alpena HS and Holt HS were there. It was great to see young people participating in the democratic process and even greater to learn from them what is important in their HS programs (high standards, great expectations, scheduling, etc.). I told them I would visit their schools and districts after school starts in September. Many thanks to Roger Love, Alcona County Chairman, and his wife, Rosemary, for the warm welcome they and fellow Democrats extended to me.
