I just spent a day at Mandela High School (Fremont HS), in Patricia Arabia’s classroom. If you want a GREAT civics lesson – I suggest you go there. I was there answering questions about the issues on the Feb. 5 ballot. The students are engaged in this election – and had great questions.

I am also interested in seeing how many of our schools do not follow ed code and practice a patriotic observance, such as the pledge of allegiance. Until very recently my own hills school did not even know that it was ed code
and practiced no observance.
