What did you see or feel today? The RTI process is cumbersome, and it disempowers teachers. The month of October is insufferably long! Happens to be the best show on television right now. Teachers have too many plates to spin and not enough time to keep them spinning. All Americans should vote their conscious on Nov. 8. I love...
