What Suzanne Powell could say on
How to Save Money During This Inflationary Period:

Remember the 1980s and high inflation? It was at that time that the world was in a major recession and the US had both tremendous unemployment and inflation. Last year we saw prices increase sharply in the area of energy and goods (especially gas and used cars). Supply chain issues also caused price increases in various goods while consumer demands for these goods remain high. Today, inflation is climbing at anxiety-producing levels. We see the effects everywhere: at the gas pumps, in the stores, with interest rates, etc. However, there are some things we can do to offset these financially unsettling times.

    • Ed Week recently reported that States are relaxing teacher certification rules to combat teacher shortages, pointing to an alarming trend of teachers leaving the profession.
    • But lowering standards for entry is clearly not the best idea if we are trying to attract the best people for the job. Teachers and school leaders are crucially important in our economy and the ongoing innovation of our country, so perhaps we should:
