John Kuhn

John Kuhn is a public school administrator in Texas. He became a vocal advocate for public education in 2011 when Texas officials enacted unprecedented school-funding cuts while simultaneously embracing the nation’s most draconian school accountability system. His “Alamo Letter” and YouTube videos of his 2011 speech at a Save Texas Schools rally went viral, as did his 2012 essay “The Exhaustion of the American Teacher,” which garnered over 149,000 “likes” on Facebook. John’s other book about education reform, titled Test-and-Punish, is forthcoming from Park Place Publications. John is married with three amazing children.
