I wonder if the use of technology is truly to blame for low writing ability. The kids at TPLC are the most wired of any in the county, if not the state. They use tech tools seamlessly in their education.

I wonder if it's more of the non-educational use of tech that is creating the monster. I wonder if we integrated modern-day productivity tools into our educational system more we'd see a jump in skills overall.

On Writing is important

WOW!
Thanks, guys but this is certainly NOT a one-woman show! Many people at the district, including John Heim and Susan Hernandez, as well as the USD 253 school board, and the people at ESSDACK actually are the ones who created and put into motion the original vision.

There have been many people working for the past 3 years (2 years before I signed on), getting this school off the ground, and we still have a LONG way to go before we relax!

Most kudoes should go to TPLC's parents who have decided to partner with the school to better their children's educational opportunties. All schools in Emporia would be as successful if every single parent chipped in as much as you all have to provide a well-rounded educational experience! We are truly an extended family, focused on children's individual needs and that's what has made all the difference!

On School Trial a Success
