adventures in inner city education

Dedicated and over-educated teacher leaves the pampered comfort of a Stanford PhD program to teach at a small, stereotypically 'inner city' elementary school in Washington, DC. And blogs about it.

First Lady's visit


What a day! The First Lady's visit went off without a hitch. Okay, well maybe one small hitch:

But other than that, it was a wonderful event. The kids were on the verge of exploding with joy--and trust me, these are no Bush fans in general!

As a bonus, they actually brought us the check. And looks like I'm in for a promotion of some sort...meet with the exectuive director again later this week.

That's so damn cool. You go, Ms. Sweetland!!!

So what kind of promotion could you get (what's above a teacher... besides a principal)?

Congrats again!
