Area code 062


Today I got a telephone call with the area code 062, which is an invalid code number. Perhaps this was done so one could not have it placed on the "do not call " government list.

More on Education


Recently, I posted a blog discussing some of the issues with public education. Let me say I am a big advocate of public education. However, I do believe there are areas that need attention. My last blog attempted to encourage parents and guardians of school age children to make reading a priority at home. I also mentioned that issues such as AYP, GPS and CRCT can often be confusing to parents. Do we really know ...
