Kudos to the teacher for taking the extra step. It is nice to see teachers doing this sort of thing, it pains me, otoh, that some will never see anything positive in anything that a teacher tries to do to reach a student. Yes, I posted this because it was a positive article about public education, but I see there's very little interest in that...

Considering the amount of vitriol thrown around this website claiming NOTHING is good/positive about public schools, I would venture many folks prefer not to be attacked for supporting such examples.
I actually find it amazing that the MSM so rarely prints/shows the positives coming from public schools and emphasizes only the negatives. It makes no sense as it plays right into the hands of people they detest and seek to belittle at every turn.

This speaks volumes. I was very interested in this and very glad to read it. Thank you.
