The presidential election has focused on many issues. Some silly and some as serious as they get. What I’m not hearing is what we are going to do to improve our children’s education.

Our education system is based on a farm economy. We still have and need farmers, but the vast body of people work in offices, factories, construction or transportation. The list goes on and on.

What is new is the need for students who can go into high-tech fields. These jobs not only pay well, but employers are going begging overseas to find the individuals they need.
