Sometimes through the gloom and doom of media reports on “failing schools” and the need for Education reform, I lose sight of the powerful notion that today’s youth are the most literate generation (worldwide) that this Earth has ever seen. The same Keillor essay I linked to in the previous post does a beautiful job of alluding to this.
Reminder to self: All is not lost, the sun will come up tomorrow, these kids will be OK – perhaps even better than that.
