The AFRTS
News Center presents "The
Leaders".
Elizabeth Middlemiss is a Defense Department
leader on education for children in military families. She says
several new initiatives for the upcoming year from new instructional
material to new testing programs will make Department of Defense
schools better than ever.
Dr. Elizabeth Middlemiss:
DoDEA has always had wonderful schools. And
the things that make DoDEA schools wonderful are our parents,
our educators, and most of all, our students. With all the initiatives
that we put in place on a yearly basis and with the things that
are coming in place this year, the bottom line is what's happening
in the classroom. So, more than anything else, it's important
for parents if they have questions, ideas, suggestions, to communicate
all of that with their teachers and with the administrators
within the school districts. That's the place where education
truly takes place.
