On Tuesday, March 24, 2009, Tenafly High School in Tenafly, New Jersey hosted a landmark evening of conversation entitled:Dear Mr. President: Illuminating the Current Landscape of Education & Igniting its Future Trajectory
The conversation offered insights and unique perspectives on the current landscape of education and provided a vision for its future trajectory. The insights and perspectives emerged from an esteemed panel of some of the greatest thinkers in education, our leaders in developing the minds and hearts of future generations and providing hope for tomorrow. The conversation presented President Barack Obama a framework of educational issues and recommendations to consider in shaping the future of education. The panel was comprised of educators and authors who have made significant contributions to the discussion about education in the United States. Maurice Elias, Jennifer M. Fox, Andy Hargreaves, Heidi Hayes Jacobs, Robyn R. Jackson, Linda Lantieri, Deborah Meier, Stephanie Pace Marshall, Carol Ann Tomlinson, Grant Wiggins , Judy Willis, and Patricia Wolfe answered questions regarding teaching, technology, trends, research, schools and communities, child development and leadership as it pertains to the future of education. In addition, to these speakers, the evening’s conversation was moderated by ABC news anchor, Lori Stokes. In these times of financial constraints in public education and our economy at large, it was necessary for the event to take place without any funding. The panelists agreed to participate simply out of their devotion to the field of education and the children in our schools. This filmed event played host to an intimate audience of approximately 200 by invitation only guests who could move the conversation past the New York Metropolitan area and into the ears of our President. The Strengths Movement in Schools will no doubt continue to have a central role in influencing the future of our classrooms.
