[statecom-discuss] slogan ideas???

[Luc Schuster]

Hi GRPers-

I'm writing to seek people's advice on a slogan for my coming school
committee campaign. Last election my slogan was:
"An educator for a change." It worked well because it had a double meaning
that captured much of why I was running. I am a teacher and there were no
teachers on the committee at the time. And as a teacher I work intentionally
to effect social change. It was also useful for campaign volunteers as a
starting point for conversations with potential voters, since it told people
both about me as a person and about my vision of public education.

But this slogan won't work as well with me being an incumbent. I also would
like a new slogan to keep things fresh. I'm meeting up with a family friend
this thursday to work on designing a new logo for our material and it would
be ideal to have a slogan ready to integrate into this design. So, does
anyone have any ideas??? It should be as short as possible and hopefully
have key words that trigger identification points in peoples' minds. One
word I was thinking of trying to use is a form of "democracy." Something
along the lines of "democratizing our schools" or "education for democracy,"
but neither of these seem quite right.

Any ideas would be great!
