  Greetings Jeff,

  I'm Mike McQueen, teacher librarian and founder of http://www.GettingBoysToRead.com. Like many school districts, we are in a financial crises. Our school board recently proposed to eliminate ALL 20+ middle school teacher librarians and also cut all 90+ elementary schools to half time. Since we are the biggest district in all of Colorado, we worry this will cause other districts to follow suit. We launched an online movement and are going to do our best to put up a good fight.

  If possible, please visit our Facebook page and "Like" us http://www.facebook.com/SupportSchoolLibraries . Adding a positive comment and sharing with your friends would help our morale as well. The board finalizes the budget soon so your timely support would be greatly appreciated!

  Sincerely,

  Mike McQueen

  Spinoza and Captain Beefheart . . . you don't see those 2 names in a sentence very often.

  We will think you are slightly misguided but that's ok...and Only if it's OK if I reveal that Jean-Jacques Rousseau is MY intellectual hero and that the BEATLES are my fave 60's band.

  Okay, if I reveal that Spinoza is my intelectual hero and that Captain Beefheart and his Magic Band are my favorite 60's band, what will you think of me?

  I'm a 4th year teacher at Denny Middle School in Seattle. I teach 8th grade math but really want to be a teacher-librarian. I need to be with people having my kind of fun!
