I received the following email from Newark Mayor Cory Booker tonight stressing what a good job Governor Corzine has done in leading and maintaining the high standards for education in the state. The video that accompanied the email I thought was excellent and a must watch:
Dear Friends.
It's that time of year again -- the summer is over and we're sending our children back to school for another school year.
As I meet with teachers, administrators and students in Newark, I've been reflecting on the changes that I've witnessed in our schools over the last four years and Jon Corzine's leadership when it comes to education in New Jersey.
Governor Corzine has increased funding for our schools by over $1 billion over the last four years, and here in Newark we're making the most of it -- we have three Blue Ribbon Schools of Excellence and seen 4 new schools built to serve the children and families of our great City.
While we've made some important strides, there is much work to be done to ensure that every New Jersey child receives an excellent education. Jon Corzine is our partner in this critical mission.
Your help and support could make a real and lasting impact in the New Jersey Governor's race, so please get involved today.
Thank you,
Mayor Cory Booker
