	Miss Porter's School - Student Review #1

		Miss Porter's school has outstanding art teachers who push you to be creative and take advantage of the beautiful campus and see everything through an artist's eye.
		Miss Porters students create clubs that are mostly all approved and set to work as soon as possible.

	Lt. Gov. Sullivan: Back-To-School Diary
		School administrators, teachers and school board share sense that No Child Left Behind is leaving lots of schools and children farther behind, really hurting students with language or special education challenges, and undermining public education while providing little funding.
		School principal makes strong case for later school start times for teens but wishes state could provide some incentive for school districts that want to change to such best practices.
		School board and school staff need the state to be more of a funding partner and the federal government to be less of a burden.

	Prep School Articles - Finding the Right Private School
		With literally 100s of boarding schools all over the country (and all of them quite different) this can be an attractive option to help you focus your time and energies.
		I am looking for a private boarding school that would accept kids who are not necessarily college bound, that is somewhat structured and nurturing, without having a strict level system, and that has a strong study skills/remedial program.
		I am not sure the name but both Miss Porters and Stoneleigh Burnam are members so you could probably backtrack into the association from either of their web-sites.

	china travelogue
		Sitting here alone -- an obvious foreigner -- I was approached by a 15-year old girl who asked if she could practice her English with me. Within 10 minutes, four other girls joined and, for an hour, we worked on their pronunciation of basic English vocabulary.
		They seemed genuinely interested in learning English and in performing well in their English class at school, but it should also be said that simply being an American here seems to earn you celebrity status; no one seemed to be asking the New Zealanders across the road for English lessons.
		At first, this form of human taxi service appears to be degrading drudgery that smacks of class oppression, but then you begin to realize that these porters are just aspiring capitalists who are willing to work incredibly hard for your money.
