* The 2023 Wordslinger Golden Horseshoe Award for Best CapitolFax.com Commenter goes to JS Mill…

JS Mill’s insights on education issues have provided us with a much needed dose of expertise to understand those often complex issues from the front line. Plus, his keen insights are not limited to just education but spill onto a multitude of other issues. I often find myself learning something new after reading comments by JS Mill.

Same. And the voting was not close.

* Congratulations to everyone who won this year…
