We want our Voices section to be a place where people can debate issues vigorously, disagree vigorously and remain respectful.
To submit a piece for Voices, email it to this address. Microsoft Word documents are preferred. We also ask that you submit two to three sentences describing your background as well as a head-and-shoulders photograph.
Our submission guidelines:
In general, posts should be no more than 700 words, though we will make exceptions on occasion.
- We are most interested in posts in which you describe or rely upon your personal experiences or observations about education issues, such as while parenting, researching or teaching, and take a stand on the issue. We appreciate posts that contribute to the informed discussion of education reform topics. When relevant, link to research or articles you’ve consulted.
- We are not interested in posts containing personal attacks or in posts in which the main objective is the promotion of yourself, a product or a program.
- Voices submissions may be edited for grammar, punctuation, clarity and space. If you want to write your own headline, keep it short and we will consider using it.
- You will be notified if we choose to run your submission. If substantial changes are required, the piece will be sent back to you for revisions.
