Here is the text that appears inside the video (audio narration is not included in this partial transcript):
 
Nashua govt. schools seem to have few recent scandals, a relatively modest expense per student and a politely accessible group of politicians and educators. That was my experience attending their board meeting in May.   

I was reduced to checking up on their knowledge of basic student performance numbers rather than having to question the sort of nasty attacks on liberty which have occurred in Manchester's school district. 

However that doesn't mean they knew the kinds of things taxpayers might expect them to. And the walls of a school, though perhaps deserving of free speech protections, do tell a tale about its priorities. 

According to education.nh.gov they spend $10.3 grand per student, which is both outrageously high and relatively low, compared to other NH districts. Anyway to my surprise of the ambush interviewees approaches me after the meeting to continue...


Murtake turns out to be a Ron Paul supporter who I think has been to Porcupine Fest!   But I still had to ask...  More pleasantly surprising Nashua school board action coming up. Want to watch in sequence?  See video descrip and its link to the playlist. 

After 15 minutes of net-searching, initially following the superintendent's directions, I was unable to find any data on the district's literacy record. 


Some...of the video in this clip's likely available for you to use commercially. Basically any part of the clip that includes "RidleyReport.com" burned into it somewhere...or was obviously shot by me.  That is released into the public domain by me.  Or in other cases it was public domain to begin with.  If it says "YouTube.com/WinWinParty" at the bottom, that means the same thing.
