Fischer made the right decision
To the editor:
I am so proud of Lee County School Board Member, Mary Fischer. She showed absolute courage by her decision to rescind her vote. To admit one made a mistake and take full responsibility is leadership skills at it most trying. What I took most from her comments was that she taught her children to listen to the butterflies in your stomach and not give in and do it anyway, but she didn’t listen to her own words, I laughed when she said her daughter called her out on it. Lesson learned. I am glad that we as a district will continue our quest to find a better way of testing our students without hurting them. I hope we are all in agreement on that and we can have other districts join us.
