Paid for by the Barbers Hill Educational Foundation.

the Education Foundation can provide grants directly to educators who have fresh, new ideas for programs that help students not only learn, but remember.

Programs that help students learn and remember to respect authority and conform. Otherwise, no education for you!

Good on you for doing the work that I didn't.
