To all of you who turned out to take a stand, THANK YOU. Congratulations to Sean. That was quite an impressive win. To Tom, Moshe & Eric... great job guys. It was great to meet you and an honor to run with you. If anyone is still interested in pursuing change, particularly moving the election to coincide with the municipal election thereby securing maximum voter participation in the decision making process, please reach out to me. The conversation must continue. I know we can flip this system around for the kids if we all work together. This is NOT ABOUT POLITICS. People shouldn’t have to move out of Jersey City in order for their kids to get a decent education. For those who haven’t noticed, the children in Jersey City’s public school system are 90% ethnic minority. In light of this disproportionally high amount of minority students in the system, academic failure amounts to systemic racism. Notwithstanding, it truthfully robs all of our children of their futures. We all know intuitively that the time has come for a revolution in our system of education.  I am committed to actually doing something about our academic malaise, rather than pandering to bureaucrats that have miserably failed in their primary mission, namely, to educate our children. It's time we stopped rewarding incompetence at our children's expense and held people to definitive and realistic goals. The truth is that we collect reports on the failure of our educational system, even when compared to that of third world countries and then do nothing to address the issues revealed by the studies conducted ad nauseam. It’s time to make the necessary changes and save our children. I am an INDEPENDENT representing the parents, kids, and teachers that love and care for the well being and legitimate education of our children. I am committed to the children and have stated, for the record, that I am not seeking a position as a “stepping stone” for another political office. My life has been dedicated to serving my community. Vote for me only if you want to see radical, intelligent change in the system and if you feel that parents and teachers should be empowered to do what they do best. I am a proponent of parental empowerment and private partnerships. Corporate America has a vested interest in the proper education of our children, particularly in the areas of science and math. There is no greater issue that will affect the long term economic success of our country than the education of our children. We have already lost several generations as I see it. We must now turn the tide. We need a revolution, and for that... WE NEED YOU - VOTE A4 Mario Gonzalez for Board of Ed.
