Inside Outreach
For two years, as a teacher, I hoped to attend the Teaching and Learning Celebration. Who would have thought I would finally land my chance by working in the Education Department at Thirteen?

One Week Ago
It's hard to believe the 2008 Celebration was a week ago! I was working in the Studio with my colleagues from Educational Publishing and a variety of nice volunteers, handing out some of our publications, taking a few pictures, and stamping the PBS neighborhood sheets for the prize basket drawing.

Who Are We Celebrating?
I remember the first time I went to a meeting called by the Carnegie Corporation -- to start the National Board of Professional Teaching Standards (NBPTS). I was shocked at the luxury -- a huge platter of shrimps, elegant meals, in an elegant hotel! I kept thinking—more money was spent on those appetizers and drinks than I have to spend on my whole school! But I grew to appreciate it. But not so much that we gave up having our own chintzy staff retreats, at children\'s camps, with outdoor toilets and bunk beds!

The 21st Century: What’s a school to do?
Whatever educators try to do, it never seems to be enough. And since schools have so many paymasters -- it was hard enough when it was local, state and federal levels of government, but today the list includes an array of private foundations, corporations, and even individuals -- schools of all sorts are trying to make decisions while getting pulled in myriad directions.
