Big news!<\/p>\n

I could not be more thrilled to have been invited to be a contributor to The Huffington Post<\/a>. I have read The Huffington Post since the day it launched and am extremely honored to be associated with this ground-breaking publication.<\/p>\n

My first article just went live on the Politics page<\/a> of The Huffington Post. The article is called, “The Surge Against First Graders<\/a>.”<\/p>\n

If the article is pushed off the main (politics) page, it may be found here: http:\/\/www.huffingtonpost.com\/gary-stager\/the-surge-against-first-g_b_100456.html<\/a><\/p>\n

My page for future articles is: http:\/\/www.huffingtonpost.com\/gary-stager\/<\/a> This is in addition to my own blog at http:\/\/www.stager.org\/blog<\/a> and http:\/\/www.districtadministration.com<\/a><\/p>\n

While checking out my article, feel free to share the love and leave a comment or Buzz-Me-Up! Education needs more critical analysis and reportage. I am humbled that the Huffington Post has given me this opportunity to reach such a large audience.<\/p>\n
