From Strip Club to School Board

Tuesday, April 11, 2006

Not sure what the line of thinking was for electing this guy to the Mehlville School Board in Missouri.

Apparently, former male dancer and current strip club owner, Micheal Ocello, will become the newest member of the school board. Maybe it was his"Buns for Guns" platform that got him elected. For other campaign highlights, see here.

*Let's just hope he's not in charge of aligning high school standards to "skills" needed in the workforce.

  • why kindling flames?
    Socrates wrote, "Education is the kindling of a flame; not the filling of a vessel." This edublog is a place for us to come together as students, to learn more about the topics that interest us, and to engage in meaningful conversation about education policy. This site is not the end of our search for knowledge, but rather the beginning. A kindled flame.
    who are we?
    We are a group of education policy students at The George Washington University who are attempting to create dialogue, discuss policy issues, and build community. We come from diverse education experiences. We are teachers, policymakers, parents, activists, and researchers. While we may come from different backgrounds and have different perspectives, we are united under a common belief in the importance of education.
