[MOSAIC] Passion . . . long and OT/Lori

Rosie,
  We are both in NC, and I see this as well. Parents that believe that baseball, football, soccer, and dance are more important than reading! I suggested once that a student do their reading inbetween their practice times and met a cold stare of a dad who was trying to make excuses for his child's lack of daily reading.

You are right about college not being right for everyone. We need skilled tradespeople who are knowledgeable on the latest techniques and applications.

  How children learn is as important as what they learn: process and content go hand in hand. http://www.responsiveclassroom.org
