thank you for this. I'm a third grade teacher who just resigned after 20 years. tooooo many reasons. one of them is that people entrust me with their babies every morning, and I don't know that I can keep them safe and alive in their own classroom until the dismissal bell. can't carry that anymore. it is too heavy and breaks my bones.

Your neighborhood is diverse challenged by economic inequality. It is encouraging to know the high school kids get it. Thx for sharing

Minnesota = M'ni (water) + sota (pronounced shota) (means clouds) - short for M'ni sota makoce = land where the water meets the clouds.

The mourning of the murdered children's families requires us to be Decency.
