New Year - New Perspectives

After a year's hiatus, I am going to attempt to restart this blog. My idea has been the same - bring Gettysburgians together that are placed in a variety of placement context and have us share our experiences. Easier said then done. Gettysburgians are busy, but TFAers are even more crazy. Teaching has its high's and low's.

I will introduce 2 new contributors very shortly - or they will introduce themselves. For the meantime I'm going to say that I'm going to do a series of posts in different areas.

"Notes for Policy Makers" will focus on how a classroom issue either fixes a national education issue or brings it into new light. "Strategies that Work" will center around strategies I have found successful in my classroom. "Tales from the front lines..." hopefully will give you context on what kids in the DC region go through.

We'll start there. Maybe I'll add some more titles. Hopefully these quick tidbits will give you a glimpse into the dilemma I refer to the achievement gap that I feel so strongly about.
