Watched recent SBOE meetings; members appear unsupportive of #dyslexiahandbook Sen. Brenner Andrew Brenner-you have a legacy of helping dyslexic students in OH, but if SBOE won’t approve handbook, your work for our #dyslexic kids goes down the drain. Don’t give up on our kids!

Hanford brings her reporting to Ohio with her 3rd exposé, this one on Fountas and Pinnell. It’s extraordinary to hear how their empire began. But it’s time to put an end to their harm. We must stop buying what they are selling and save our children. #ParentsForReadingJustice
