It was a great presentation Tim. Thank you. I am glad that you mentioned outreach to parents, since this is one direction that I have been focusing on at school. Parents, us middle aged people who are caught in the middle of this storm, do not always have the tools necessary to deal with our children and do not understand what we as forward thinking educators are trying to accomplish.
