Governor Mitt Romney Teacher Quotes
- “Charter schools embrace innovative educational practices that encourage competition and hold teachers and administrators accountable for the academic achievement of their students. Choice within the Massachusetts public school system should be available to all parents, particularly those with children in our low-performing districts.”
- Governor Mitt Romney, May 2005 Press Release
- “We need to get our underperforming school districts back on track. It is time for the interests of the entrenched educational bureaucracy to take a back seat to the interests of our children and teachers.”
- “Massachusetts has some of the best schools and teachers in the nation. Education reform, adopted a decade ago, raised standards and closed funding gaps. But it was the first step, not the last.”
- Governor Mitt Romney, 01-15-2004 Press Release
- Speaking from the House Chamber at the State House.
- "I applaud the students, teachers and staff of these excellent schools for the hard work and creativity they have demonstrated as we continue making progress toward higher achievement for all students in Massachusetts.”
- “We’re making progress, there’s no doubt about it, but we have more work to do. These test scores reflect the hard work and creativity of our students, teachers and schools, but they also reveal that some are still struggling. It is increasingly critical that we advance bold reforms to ensure greater accountability and performance in every classroom.”
- “Teachers like Jasmine Lellock and Thabiti Brown are critical to the success of our education initiatives and are doing an outstanding job preparing our children for future success in the classroom and the world. Teaching professionals are the backbone of our educational system and the best should be recognized and rewarded.”
- “Our Presidential Award nominees set a great example, not only for educators in Massachusetts, but for the nation. Distinguished math and science teachers like these are the critical components of a public education system that will prepare us for the next century, and they deserve to be recognized for their hard work, creativity and dedication.”
- “Charter schools embrace innovative educational practices that encourage competition and hold teachers and administrators accountable for the academic achievement of their students. Choice within the Massachusetts public school system should be available to all parents, particularly those with children in our low-performing districts.”
- Governor Mitt Romney, May 2005 Press Release
In Massachusetts, Romney found a way to provide healthcare for 500,000 uninsured people without casting their burdens on the state. He found a way to defend the role of traditional families at the same time he denounced the discrimination of gays and lesbians. And he advanced education in the inner cities by rewarding teachers rather than threatening them.
