As most of you know, last Friday, Mr. Mac held his first ever brown bag lunch. During the lunch he discussed the state of today's education system. He also talked about how and why DCE was moving forward to become a school of communication. To say that the talk was enlightening would be putting it very mildly. I was extremely moved by the presentation. Both scared and excited about the future of public education. The only thing I can say with absolute certainty is that in this scary time of great need for change, I am oh so very grateful that I live in the school district in which I do. One whose leaders like Dr. Turner and Mr. Mac know that the education system which worked when we were children is not one that will engage children of today.
I ask that each of you take 10 minutes to watch a video that was shown to us during the lunch. I think you will appreciate it. I also ask that you join Mr. Mac at his next brown bag. You will not be sorry.....
