Good Teachers Caught Giving an Extra Effort!

Teachers Who Deserve Extra Credit!

Public school is not in session, but one of the things that always gives America a fighting chance is our extra effort.  When we are knocked down, we always get back up.  Education reforms like school choice, and renewing America’s competitive strength as a global leader are complex goals.

I stopped in for a pick me up at a local and was soon followed by a group of high energy, enthusiastic people.  They entered one by one like attending a reunion of some sort.  Had it not been for the occasional notepad they carried, I might have thought they were gathering to go see the new flick .  Actually, it wasn’t difficult for me to guess that they were teachers.  After giving “What I Did This Summer” reports, they got right down to the business of planning to receive The International Academy of Smyrna’s 1^st grade students.  They were clearly engaged in team teaching, a process proven to increase results in the classroom.

Good teachers work hard.  Excellent teachers often prepare and work outside of the boundaries of our school walls.  Like these dedicated teachers at the , a public charter school on the rise, giving the extra 5% makes a 100% difference in improving student success in the Cobb County School District.  Thanks teachers.  You stimulate the brain better than coffee!

If you are a corporation looking to re-locate, consider schools like this one as one of Smyrna’s assets!  Schools of Choice make Smyrna a Good Choice!
