FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Geologist Runs for the State Superintendent of Public Instruction Office

Karen Blake has announced her candidacy for the Superintendent of Public Instruction for the State of California for the 2010 election.  

As America faces the energy challenges, it also faces a decline of students entering the sciences and engineering fields.  The challenge of meeting an increasing demand for a technical workforce is complicated by the number of scientists and engineers approaching retirement age.

California, once a leader in education, fell to 47th in the National Assessment of Educational Progress.  It is time for a new perspective, coming from industry.
