    Hi everyone,

    We are all a community of learners and teachers here at DI, and I know that you believe in education just as I do.

    I have written in my blog previously about Teach for America. My family has a personal link to this wonderful organization. I am pleased to direct you to the Dateline NBC website for a set of new articles about Teach for America.

    Correspondent Hoda Kotb reports on "The Education of Ms. Groves", the story of a new Teach for America teacher, Monica Groves, and her experiences at Jean Childs Middle School in Atlanta. She began the job thinking that she was the teacher, and soon found out that she was the one who had a lesson to learn.

    Dateline NBC will air this report on Saturday here in our local market. Be sure to watch this program to learn more about Teach for America.

    Also, you may want to check out the Newsweek article, "15 Ideas to Recharge America", and the essay by Wendy Kopp, President and founder of Teach for America.

    Regards,
    Cindy
