French visits New Union Elementary School

First it was a honor to speak to the children of the New Union Community. The quality of questions and the attention to detail was very impressive and something that I'm excited about as this generation grows older. I think it is important for our children to not only learn about government and the impact it has on our every day life, but also to be heard... to have their questions and concerns answered. This visit has inspired me to get more involved in our school systems and become more familiar with the concerns of the students and our teachers in our community. We are launching a new initiative at RyansReasons.com where we are focusing on our outreach to students and teachers both in our city school and in our fringe community schools as well. I will be sending out a letter to all of our educators next week that will outline the program, provide a mission statement, and list of goals that we hope to accomplish together.
