The MarylandCAN story. In many ways, Maryland has good reason to be proud of its public schools. On the 2011 Nation’s Report Card, our fourth-graders ranked fifth in math and third in reading. Last year, our state won $250 million in the federal Race to the Top grant competition and $50 million in this year's Race to the Top Early Learning Challenge for innovative plans to make our education systems even better. When it comes to our public schools, it’s clear that we’re doing some things right. 00:38:00Parent Talk Live9noMarylandCan,Parents,Education,Dr Mike Robinson,Curtis ValentineJoin host, Dr. Mike Robinson as he discusses the efforts taking place in the state of Maryland and across the nation to increase the inovlement and acceptancehttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/parent-talk-live-9/2013/02/11/parent-talk-live-an-interview-with-congressman-john-lewisEducationhttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/parent-talk-live-9/2013/02/11/parent-talk-live-an-interview-with-congressman-john-lewis/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/parent-talk-live-9/2013/02/11/parent-talk-live-an-interview-with-congressman-john-lewisMon, 11 Feb 2013 01:00:00 GMTParent Talk Live: An Interview with Congressman John Lewis   On February 10, 2013, at 8:00 pm, Join Dr. Mike Robinson, host of Parent Talk Live will interview Congressman John Lewis about his historic civil rights days and how education played a role in his life.   John Robert Lewis is the U.S. Representative for, serving since 1987.
