“Chris has the intelligence and vision to bring much-needed, bold new ideas to an ossified and failed education system. Instead of making cosmetic changes to the system year after year, I would count on Chris to institute dramatic change for the better.”

“As a teacher, if a student is not learning, I try a different approach with that student. It’s time to find a different approach to educating Rochester’s kids. Chris Edes is the candidate who can deliver that different approach.”

“I think Chris Edes is the best person for the job. His desire to involve the parents in the decisions made about their children’s education is wonderful. I love his fresh ideas about alternative education, and his insistance on financial responsibilty and accountabilty in the school district.”
