Musings on Mytholgy…and Education??

By: Tuesday March 23, 2010 5:29 pm

Are the two even related?? Yes, both pedagogically (meaning that the subject of Mythology is something that I have had the pleasure of teaching in the past), and, oddly enough as I found two nights ago, in a parabolic sense as well.

For What it’s Worth…

Members of my local teaching union are meeting with members of the school board today in an attempt to clarify the issues going on at our high school. Recently, a small article appeared in the local paper about what’s “going on” at our school, and this has sparked fear in my heart for a number of reasons. Chiefly, I fear that in this recent environment of domino effect school issues, our school might be one of the next to fall victim to the Obama and Duncan “plan” for schools.

I’m including the letter that I wrote (it will appear first) along with two other letters written by teachers here at the high school. Everything is “re-printed” with permission, and I have edited to preserve the anonymity of myself and my peers.
