That’s right, the boy from Maury High School has become the champion of the nation’s teachers. Who is this Maury grad? None other than MSNBC’s Ed Schultz. Ed has never been one of my favorites but I have new respect. He has been out to Wisconsin and has gotten down in the trenches.
Jackie Haworth, a retired teacher from Ohio, appears on the Ed Show to discuss how things really are. She was amazing. Ed met Jackie because she emailed him after his radio show. Jackie has been where many people have not.
Ed goes back to Maury High School next week. Maury is in the middle of Norfolk. I assume he will find that things have changed alot. Very few commentators have been as supportive of public school teachers during this crisis as Ed.
