Kentucky education now at a crossroads

Kentucky Education Commissioner Jon Draud has resigned citing health reasons, and so we have another opportunity to bring in someone who will shake up the old way of doing things and get us moving in the right direction.

Not that it will happen, but it is another chance.

During this time of transition, however, we should demand each and every school system in the state put all of their expenditures on the internet so everyone can see where our money is going.

That is something we can make progress on while Gov. Steve Beshear moves reluctantly toward more openness in his administration.

Still haven't seen anything on Beshear's promised "efficiency study," by the way.
