From the Trenches of Public Ed.  
I am a teacher, and I wrote "In the Trenches: A Teacher's Defense of Public Education." This blog continues the themes of that book: public schools are important, their job is becoming increasingly difficult, and they are doing a much better job than they are given credit for.

  As a recently retired teacher, I always look forward to this blog - the only one I check regularly. Dennis seems to be very pragmatic and willing to admit faults, while holding to his considered views. The links to other blogs are also very helpful.

  I always look forward to reading Dennis' entries. The fact that he gets so many responses from his readers shows how effective his blog is in discussing educational issues that should be important to all of us.
