Dear Katie Ford:
Thank you for the May cover story, “The upside of a down economy.” Many people agree that a possible silver lining in this low economy is the prospect of creating an opportunity for highly qualified professionals to get back into the workforce, while also providing a win-win situation for our students. This article shows that with proper support, content-rich professionals can become effective classroom instructors. The lining is indeed silver, and the time is indeed now.

Dear Katie Ford:
The article about me in Texas School Business (“In the Spotlight,” May 2009) was very well written and professionally done. I appreciate writer Elizabeth Millard’s words and was humbled by the content. Thank you for making this such a special reading for me.

Dear Riney Jordan:
Great job with your column (“The Back Page: I will all ways love you,” January 2009) in Texas School Business! Each month when my issue arrives, I flip through it and your column is the first thing I read. Then I go back to the beginning and read everything else. I like knowing that it’s always there. Thanks for taking time to write it.

Dear John Young:
I just finished reading your column (“Young’s Inbox: Been there, done what?” April 2009) in Texas School Business and could not have agreed with you more! It is certainly refreshing to see we actually have legislators who are finally listening to educators’ and parents’ concerns and are willing to introduce — and fight for — legislation to get our school systems back to a place of normalcy.
