RE: Memoir Monday #37 (11/18-11/24) - Write about a favorite teacher.

Teachers like Mr Morgan are rare, even rarer now that the educational system is no longer what it once was. Mr Morgan did a great job in helping you develop and grow as a student and for that you will ever remember and appreciate him. Teachers are meant to fill in where parents can't and that's exactly what Mr Morgan did. The disciplinary attitude of teachers can be a problem at times for students but as they grow they understand. Thanks for writing. Have a great day.

That seems to be the case. Standardized testing has ruined the educational system here in America. The focus has shifted to making sure everyone passes to the next grade whether they are capable it or not. We have kids graduating high school who can barely read.
