Kudo’s to Cape Charles Christian School!

New Christian school gains momentum, staff

Teachers are hired; tuition set at $4,500; 35 children are enrolled.

Read the rest of the story at the Eastern Shore News.  Isn’t it amazing that these dedicated teachers are even willing to fore go pay to help get this school off the ground?  We do need to support PUBLIC EDUCATION but that is NOT the same as supporting the monopoly of PUBLIC SCHOOLS.  There is a big difference between the two.

We need legislators that will support school vouchers, all schools increase performance when there is competition.  That is why we have such a great post-secondary school system in this country.  Parents should have the option to choose where they want their child to attend school and the money appropriated for that child’s public education should be applied to the school of choice so all children have the opportunity to get an outstanding education.

I hope my listeners enjoyed the show this evening!  Of course, I ran out of time . . . as usual.  Til next time,

Melody Scalley

Thank you to our Guests and Listening Audience

I ran out of time again last night.  I hope my listeners found the show as interesting as I did thought provoking. Our guests included Nationally syndicated columnist and distinguished George Mason University Professor, Dr. Walter Williams.  We also heard from Ms. Robin Martin, author of the Conservative Black Woman blog.

Former Governer George Allen joined us to discuss the ‘Cap and Tax’ proposal and how it will impact all of us when we pay our utility bills.

We continued the discussion about improving the public education available to our children with Neal McCluskey from the Cato Center for Educational Freedom and heard an update from Berkley Rayfield about the Christian School in Cape Charles.

Jim Hoeft of Bearing Drift gave us an update on the Virginia political races.  And Willie Randall announced that he is running for Supervisor in district 1,  in Northampton County.
