Viva La Revolution

Some co-workers and I spent time this afternoon discussing the sad state of affairs in the public school system. (No, I haven't given up on my rant - I just haven't had any time to work on it. It is still very much a work in progress.) I told them about my dreams of opening up my own private school and someone else commented that there will be no change until teacher like us band together and start a grassroots uprising of sorts. I left feeling like the four of us might just be the first few grains of sand grinding around in the oyster's insides - get enough of us together and perhaps a pearl in the shape of school reform will develop over time.
