The schools want you to carry some key messages into our classrooms, including the importance of staying in school and the value of each individual student.
The Great American Teach-In is a perfect opportunity for parents, business leaders, and community members to let our students know we care about them. The idea is simple – join this event on November 17, 2011, and teach a class or two, whatever your schedule permits. Opportunities are available all day long.
