- Once a San Jose Mercury News editorial writer and op-ed columnist, I left in 2001 to start an education blog at joannejacobs.com, freelance and write a book, "Our School: The Inspiring Story of Two Teachers, One Big Idea and the Charter School That Beat the Odds" (Palgrave Macmillan, 2005). I also write on community colleges at ccspotlight.org and for U.S. News & World Report.
