Just had to give a shout-out to Houston’s own Cy Ranch High School for organizing and creating such an effective and fun anti-bullying video! Way to go and get all of your students involved and use...

So I sent in an application to my kids’ school district this past week to get emergency/alternative certification as a teacher. I don’t even know if I am right material for a teacher (though I love...
