We at the GaDOE were recently visited by the Chairman of the National Assessment Governing Board (NAGB) and former Massachusetts Commissioner of Education, Dr. David Driscoll, who spoke with us about our new math curriculum. During his visit, Dr. Driscoll and I met with students, teachers, and administrators at Riverw...ood High School in Fulton County and Osborne High School in Cobb County to learn more about how the math curriculum is working there. Here are some pictures from our trip.Read More

Kathy Cox I visited Cedartown High School this morning to help Governor Perdue award the Governor's Cup for SAT performance. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to join him at Cass High School for the final award ceremony, but both of these schools (and those we visited last week) are really doing great things. Congrats to Cass, Cedartown, and all of our 2009 Governor's Cup award winners!
