The Network for Public Education Action Fund endorsed some fabulous candidates. All are supporters of public education.
Four of them won, from sea to shining sea. Open the link to see who they are.
We urge friends of public education to run for office as school board members, legislators, and any other post where you can make a difference. We can’t raise money for you, but our endorsement is a signal that you are a true supporter of public education, not a wolf in sheep’s clothing.
To learn how to obtain our endorsement, contact Robin Hiller, executive director of the NPE Action Fund at:

Get active. Help take back public education in your community, city, or state!

Who won in the races that NPE endorsed? The link provided doesn’t take me to that information. I am so happy that Kathy Gebhart in Boulder Colorado won and wanted to see her name as a winner in your blog!
The post gives the names of the winning candidates. The political arm of NPE is the NPE Action Fund
Is it a super PAC?
I meant the NPE Action Fund?
Robert,
You mean like this:
Is there some kind of federal law or rule that prohibits the US Department of Education from promoting specific products on their website?
“The consortium used a portion of the 59 million dollar grant provided by Race to the Top funds and a 2013 Delaware Department of Education innovation grant to purchase technology, build a new learning management system, and to deliver high quality professional learning for educators. The learning management system, powered by Schoology and the professional development, provided by Modern Teacher, were invaluable in providing access for Delaware’s students to learn in a personalized environment. ”

Look at this- I mean my God, it reads like ad copy:
“As a result of this partnership, the Delaware Department of Education recently selected Schoology’s learning management system to replace its existing system to power online and blended learning for the entire state to shift education from being teacher-driven to student-centered, making active, engaged learners with access to the best, most effective technology.”
Are they on commission or something over there?
