Bravo to Some Amazing Teachers

In yesterday's Poughkeepsie Journal (linked below) there was an article about two local teachers who had been laid off due to the cutbacks so many school districts are experiencing in tight economic times.  http://www.poughkeepsiejournal.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=2012307210007
It is particularly interesting that they are choosing to build their curriculum around the Get Set Curriculum from Handwriting Without Tears.  http://www.hwtears.com/gss/about
If I had a preschooler, I'd be stopping by to take a look.  The children in Fishkill, NY are the lucky ones as they are likely to have a preschool experience that will prepare them for the education journey ahead.
