Goals 2000

Greetings to all who believe in the name of Jesus,

I have been reading the different responses to "Goals 2000" with much 
interest.  I wonder how we would feel if we were to deprive many children 
of a free education in our schools?  Each day that I enter my library in 
a public school, I think God for the chance to teach and reach out to my 
inner city children.  They come from a variety of home situations.  You 
can see how that Satan is trying to capture the hearts and minds of our 
children.  Maybe, we will be the only light that they will see in their life.
I love these kids!!!  Many of their parents would never be able to afford 
a private education for them..................and many wouldn't be 
interested.  I guess what I am trying to say is "Don't forget the little 
children".  Jesus came to save the lost!  I know he would be the first to 
open his arms to them.

I could add a lot more about ACE and Goals 2000.  One of my daughters 
attended and ACE school for one year.  There is good and not so good in 
the program............the same as public schools.  I wouldn't argue 
about either one.  At this present time, I do know that all school 
systems are looking at seniors who are graduating each year.  Businesses 
are telling the school systems that they are sending them a work force 
unprepared to meet the technology standards of today.  They have met with 
President Clinton and asked that something be done to improve the 
technology standards in our schools today.  The big draw back is more 
involvement in the schools by the federal government.  Money will be sent 
to the schools that are on these federal programs.  They must follow the 
guidelines set or lose federal funding.  There are many Apostolic 
Pentecostal public school teachers in my school system.  We are very 
blessed to have each other!!  

I hope that I haven't offended anyone. Please forgive me if I have.  My 
desire is to live for Christ and to be example before others.  Pray for 
the public school teachers.  We need it!

God Bless You All!
