Rafe Esquith is a 5th grade public school teacher in Los Angeles and the only teacher ever to receive the National Medal of the Arts award. His latest book is: Teach Like Your Hair is on Fire. We are ordering it for our library. Sign up now to read it.
At one point in the interview he said something that rang a loud bell for me. He said part of his philosophy is “put more food on the table and everyone will find something they like to eat.”
At Delarc we call it person-centered engagement. A rose by any other name, stills smells as sweet.
I believe this demonstrates, one more time, our philosophy and approach is state of the art. You are doing what the best of the best in the world are doing. The people you support are receiving the benefits and that is something of which we should all be proud.
I am looking for a volunteer or two to read the book and advise us of what they discover.Let me know if you are interested. Thanks
