phynckeThe president sent out an email today about his speaking at a high school commencement this Spring. I am hoping that this paste of the link will work but he is having people rate the high schools based on the videos (and descriptive info) submitted. These are the finalists.

If the first link does not work, try this one:

The challenge should toggle around on the slide show on the White House page.
See what you think and feel free to vote. I hope that you will participate in this. I wish a California HS had gotten in but that is life. Let me know if this works for you and if you can vote on these (or rate them).
Cheers.
From the email:
We're calling this process the Race to the Top Commencement Challenge, and it's just the beginning. I'm planning to speak at a high school graduation every year I'm in office to keep the focus on our commitment to our Nation's schools, and to motivate teachers, principals, and students to keep improving. And of course lifting up American education will take parents getting more involved in their child's education.
