I have come to fall in love with teaching in Catholic schools. What are YOU in love with?...

"Nothing is more practical than finding God, that is, than falling in love in a quite absolute, final way. What you are in love with, what seizes your imagination, will affect everything. It will decide what will get you out of bed in the morning, what you will do with your evenings, how you will spend your weekends, what you read, who you know, what breaks your heart, and what amazes you with joy and gratitude. Fall in love, stay in love, and it will decide everything." - Pedro Arrupe

Time for a Follow Up on School Choice

It's now been a few months since I attended ACE's Parental Choice Symposium, and that has allowed me some time to read up on some articles, become more familiar with programs and policies, etc.

In fact, I now try to stay up to date by routinely checking ACE's PEA (Program for K-12 Educational Access) page for links to the latest news @ the bottom right-hand side. [Trust me, it's worth the time & effort if you want to learn more too - ACE usually updates articles once or twice a week.]

That's what ultimately brought my attention to the following video:


Doesn't that just give you chills?

The movie "Won't Back Down" (which, for the record, I still haven't seen) has created a lot of hype and has provided the opportunity for school choice programs and policies to come to the forefront of politics and, more importantly, to the attention of parents who deserve better choices, whether those be private or public, for their children.

Let's keep the conversation going...
