Jim McBride Quotations

We need to upgrade Wyoming's academic standards and reputation. The Hathaway scholarship has put us on a road to be the best and the first in education.

Very likely the Legislature is going to allow us to implement the Hathaway Scholarship Program, which is just an amazing opportunity. It will allow us to improve test scores and graduation rates. It's going to be an economic development tool as well.

The Wyoming Equality Network has been heralded as one of the most progressive and effective uses of technologies in national education surveys. We plan to continue our success by working with Qwest to grow the applications and infrastructure of the WEN. We can't overstate the importance of equal access to the Internet, and we're pleased to be among the leaders in the nation when it comes to technology in the classroom.

It makes no sense to skip a whole year of students just because we couldn't act quickly enough.

I come to work a lot earlier and I stay a lot later, and I'm involved in a whole lot more things.
