American Dream Girl Has a Dream Class

Many teachers dream of students who are truly engaged in their classes. That's one of the reasons ADG prefers teaching in alternative schools where students are not obliged to go to school, but rather opt to be there. Our Blogging/Column Writing Class at the Nackey Loeb School is a great example of this. Our students are creating amazing blogs, and we couldn't be happier. Thanks for your participation. And everyone - here are the links to some of these great blogs. Looking forward to another great class today and if you haven't sent me the links to your blogs yet, please do and I'll add them here..

The American RIGHT is in Danger and That's Way More Important than the American Dream


It took four hours for a working woman in Philadelphia to get a photo id to vote the other day. She had no license because she lives in a city and takes public transportation to go to work every day. No surprise this woman was black and she was shifted to one long line after another at city hall. This goes beyong the political. This sets America back 40 years in the Civil Rights movement. Lest we forget all those who died in the south trying to reverse the Jim Crow laws and get blacks registered to vote,among them New Hampshire's own Jonathan Daniels  who was killed in 1965. Let's not forget and dishonor all those who sacrificed. Whether you're a Republican or Democrat, this should disturb us all. This goes to the roots of what it means to be an American.

Bittersweet American Dream Girl Gets Her Wish

On the eve of Freshmen First Night: This is the happiest day of my life. All of a sudden I realized that everything I went through before - all the pain, chemo, fear, three bouts of cancer - was to see this day - get Sam through to being a teenager and getting into high school. Every year when all the other moms would cry to see their kids go off to school the first day, I'd rejoice because my son was that much older, needed me that much less. And it hit me just now, that I'm here. I made it. He is the reason I'm here against all odds. You're a man and you don't need me any more but don't worry, I'm not going any where soon. I'm sure to embarrass you at some point tonight and I'm thrilled to have the opportunity. Here's the the next four years.
