We have been working in California and, among so many others, are committed to and interested in how it can improve its education performance statewide over the next four years—improvements across the entire system and all of its levels. We believe that there are enough forces aligned to make this result a distinct possibility and the actions and coordinated efforts we are taking are practical and realistic. Our team is working in partnership with a number of groups at all levels of the state but it will be the internal leadership within the state that will lead and cause the change to happen. We are fortunate and proud to be participants in this unprecedented endeavor. This is indeed a golden opportunity for system transformation that occurs once in a lifetime at best.
