Thank you Assemblyman McDonough. As a retired teacher I speak with more years of experience than I…Read More wish to admit to. No matter what your subject matter nor unit you are working on there is nothing more rewarding that having a student ask a thoughtful, provoking question that may or may not be exactly on topic. The fact that there was something that inspired that child's imagination, had them ponder a question and then have the courage to ask, is what teaching is all about. I was once told that as teachers "we can not teach them all they need to know, but we can teach them how to be curious, life-long learners". Learning how to answer questions for a state mandated test isn't the answer. The tests have taken the passion out of teaching, the joy of discovery from the child, and have only produced numbers that can be published in state reports and local newspapers. Please continue to fight for our children and allow them to discover, imagine and dream.

Natalie. I am so sorry to read this. I too have a little 5 yr. old dog who I love desperately...…Read More and I feel your pain. There is another website for an organization that does an amazing job finding lost pets. It's LOSTMYDOGGIE.COM There is a small fee, but they get signs up all over the area and have a phone system set up where everyone in the area of where she was lost gets a PHONE CALL ALERT message to watch for Molly. They leave a phone number and their website address so if anyone has seen her or has her they know where to call. Great system! Check it out! I've never used them, but I HAVE received calls myself recently on 2 separate lost dogs and I've seen the many photos they hung up in my area in Levittown for dogs lost within a few miles of this area. In other words, they DO what they say they will do to help find Molly. Just want you to know what is out there to help you bring Molly home. My grandkids go to school around Grand and Camp Ave. We'll be watching for her! God Bless and good luck! I'm sure she will be returned to you real soon!!
