Sandy Hughes
Hamilton County Education Association President and Former High School Teacher
Hamilton
Chattanooga, Tennessee

“Due to the mandates of ESEA, we are experiencing families who are moving to other neighborhoods to find a 'better school.' Every school should be a great school. Now these two schools are significantly overcrowded, and students do not feel the community of their own school in their own neighborhood.

"With the overcrowding, students cannot get the attention they need from teachers. Help us help children by enacting legislation that makes it financially possible to have quality education in every school.”
