Well, add this to the litany of reasons that I haven’t been keeping up on the blog. Sad, because i wrote daily for years on here, but real life is getting in the way. One of the projects I’ve been working on is Parents for Dekalb County Schools. A very concerned parent created the group to try and improve the schools in my county. He is doing some awesome work, and trying very hard to reach out to parents in all parts of the county. This video is part of that outreach. We are really trying to find more parents like Bernadette out there to join us in making DeKalb schools great!
If you are reading this, and know a parent in DeKalb, please consider sharing this with them. Kids in DeKalb need all the help they can get. And if you do share it, maybe I’ll think about writing one of my ultra-embarrassing, self-deprecating blog posts. It’s been a while since I’ve done that to myself. I might even include middle school pictures.

Good for you!
I got so disgusted at my kid’s school last year that I actually stepped up and despite the fact that I have avoided PTO meetings like the plague the last 4 years, I am now a PTO board member (and secretly taking over the whole works.)
Hmmm, I live in Virginia and don’t know if I know any Dekalb county parents. I will share with all my college friends that live in the greater Atlanta area though and see if I can’t help spread the word.
