I also didn't see any secondary messages in Mr. Mann's post.  And,
although I strongly disagree with his position on ability grouping,
I would like to take this opportunity to endorse his candidacy for
the MPS school board (which of course doesn't mean that I won't
be running myself).  Mr. Mann knows the research on his issues
and is passionately supportive of the right of students to be guaranteed
a quality education.  The school board definitely needs more knowledgeable
and passionate advocates for quality education, whoever they may be.
