Millville, NJ has a business and arts district which remains open late
every third Friday of the month... The event is heavily publicized by
local papers, and in every shoppe and gallery's window.
The event draws what have been described as huge crowds including
locals, visitors, and college
I saw a report this morning about a movie called 2 Million Minutes which is a
comparison of
US schools vs. the rest of the world. Basically, we tend to reward students for
good athletic

First Saturday Night.
Held the First Saturday of the month.
While these events are nice, hopefully someday every Friday and
Saturday night would be like that
Yes, you can do both. The point of the documentary is more about what kids in
the US,
China and India do with their 2 million minutes spent in school. In China and
India,
students leave school with much better work ethics and are more equipped to
head out to
the work place for tech jobs and
I think another big point being made in this documentary is that jobs such as
engineers,
mathematicians and scientists aren't quite as appealing to kids any more. And
part of the
reason is we place too big an emphasis on making money and the glorification of
wealth.
Let's say you have 2 kids

Jack,
What a beautiful visual! You're a genuinely GOOD, person. No thanks,
to No Child, our school system is based on testing, which is why
many schools, score so low. I remember the first time I saw a globe
of the world, with those strange sounding places. It came, with our
set of World Book
Thanks Sharon.

I know if I sit on top of kids and work WITH them vs telling them, they'll do
it. It worked
for things like spelling or if I (we) sat by vs heading out at night. Not their
grades are that
great but I expect them to do

Do you think that at some point in the past 20 - 30 years parents started
