Good articles. These behaviors carry over to adulthood. We will need to build more prisons to house these juveniles in a few years.

This two part letter was well written. As a professional who works in this system, we have lost all authority. When there is a problem with a student, all I can do is write it up and let someone else take care of it (they usually just get talked to). I see 5-10 year olds with the attitude that you can’t do anything to me and my mom will back me up.

Excellent!! So very true and well said! I wonder if anyone is listening. I hope they are and will make a difference in the coming school year!!!!!!!!! Thank you Bill for your bold bravery in speaking up for many that are fearfully silent.

Bill, another “right on the mark” letter. You correctly point out the path to education reform is not “improving” the teaching, it will come by improving the receivers. Any group that wants to improve education should read this letter and learn from it’s message.
