...disappointed with the interview but I was pleasantly surprised.

He raised a lot of issues and I think his story will help change the public perception of teaching and teachers in a good way. Most people who are not in education have a very distorted view of public schools and what teachers do every day. Danza tells it straight...and that is good.

He even tells the starfish story!
