Rita Solnet possesses an MBA in Business and Organizational Consulting and a PhD in her passion for education! Rita is a south Florida education activist whose commentary stems from real life experiences as a parent, as a Director in a F100 corporation, as a community leader, education activist, and as a widowed mom.

As a non union member, non teacher, and non partisan individual, her perspective is unexpected and unique.

Originating with her involvement in a Facebook site named "Testing is Not Teaching," Rita led several grassroots efforts and campaigns in her state. Rita Solnet is Co-Founder of Parents Across America which encourages parental involvement, communicates best practices, and opens up the dialogue for genuine reform.

Using her organizational consulting and networking skills, Rita is often tapped to bridge differences in perspectives and seek consensus.
