At the LWVUS Convention in June 2010, a study of the role of the federal government in education was approved as a prelude to developing a national position on education. This will be the first time that LWVUS has considered a national position on education - a timely consideration as both the Bush administration (ESEA/NCLB) and the Obama administration (Race to the Top) introduced top down legislation affecting schools beyond the school nutrition/lunch program and remedial programs. With a position finally in place, the League will be able to advocate for the best possible national education policies.

Sharon McGuire, Park Forest Area League member, is one of four members from Illinois chosen to participate in the new national study on the federal role in education.
