Election Survey

With the upcoming election, we created a survey for the middle and upper school students and faculty to see what issues are most important to our community. Some of the issues in the survey included: immigration, national security, terrorism, economy, health care, race, trade, crime, guns, abortion, environment, and education. Stop by the library or the Hajjar Stem Video Wall to see the full results posted.

Important Issues - Voting Results

We surveyed students and faculty in the library before the election, asking them to vote on the one issue that is most important to them.  Economy was the big winner with 43 votes while education was not far behind with 31 votes.  Thank you to all who participated!

What Issues Are Important to You?

The debates have come and gone and we are in the final weeks of the election.  Are you still not sure which candidate you support?  Check out The Washington Post, which details a wide-ranging list of issues important to many people. 

What is most important to you?  Stop by the library to vote on what you think is the most critical issue that the candidates should be talking about.  The last day to cast your vote is November 1st and we will announce the results of the issues most essential to the school the following week.

Is the Health Care Law Unconstitutional?

While Dwight-Englewood students were off enjoying their spring break vacations, the Supreme Court was busy hearing arguments in the controversial health care case Department of Health and Human Resources v. Florida, the results of which are expected to be announced in June.   Want to learn more about the details of the law but don’t have the time to pore over lengthy legal documents?  Check out Jonathan Gruber’s highly readable and informative graphic novel, Health Care Reform.
