This is a powerful video. I am sorry that the school system you work in made it so difficult to carry out your educational philosophy. I too am thinking about finding a way out of the public school system. The pressure to perform to an unattainable standard has caused a great deal of stress on myself and my colleagues. I fear that Common Core Standards and teacher evaluations tied to student test scores will cause many teachers to leave and those that leave will be the ones most committed to the success of the students.
