What with the gloomy status of education in the state of Florida, it is news worthy to report that Florida is No. 1 in nationally certified teachers. Highlands County has about 40 of them.

This is an excellent example of the stated perception that the U.S. has shown the world it is a great country with the election of Barack Obama as president. However, let it be noted that it is the people of this nation, not our national or state governments, who have exhibited this greatness.

Highlands County is worthy to be included in that scope. Some 40 organizations have volunteers who have contributed their time, energy, experience and wisdom to aid the youth of this county to help cure what ails its communities; this is in spite of meager support from those governments.
