    It was very interesting.

  5. Rosanna – MERCEDES ISD (verified owner) –

    I wish that character development that dealt with nurturing and instilling these skills in our students was part of the curriculum. I have a program that I developed and created myself which I continually use with my students to develop these skills. It has really helped my students become self motivated and unafraid to try new things.

    An eye-opening look at how our education system has failed many students. The material presented is very thought provoking and will make you re-think how you operate your classroom, be a parent, and live your life.
