ANNAPOLIS, MD (January 14, 2010) – Governor Martin O’Malley issued this statement today following Education Week Magazine’s official selection of Maryland public schools as number one in the nation for the second straight year.
“We have chosen as a people to invest in our public schools – in the future of our State – even when times are tough.
“Today, Education Week Magazine, for the second straight year, has certified that Maryland has built the number one public school system in America. Even during these difficult economic times, we’ve continued to fully fund efforts to build new, state-of-the-art classrooms, integrate curriculum across all grade levels, and hire and retain the nation’s best educators. Now, for yet another year, Education Week Magazine has affirmed the importance of protecting these shared priorities.”
