Mark your calendars
Reliable sources indicate the date for U.S. Secretary of Education Rod Paige's visit to Bethel is May 5. The Secretary, after taking a lambasting from Senator Ted Stevens about the impact of the "No Child Left Behind" act, promised he would visit Rural Alaska. So, we can look forward to an invasion by an army of U.S. Department of Education Security men ("hey, sir, this is a gun-free school...") and a couple of cute photo opportunties as the Secretary inspects a school in our region.
Stay tuned.
