Bronx Lab, mate

Recently, one of Australia's larger networks came to New York and did a story on small, progressive schools, and my school was the one they chose to feature. If you have 15 minutes, check it out--you will see two of the most powerful people in education: Chancellor Joel Klein and the UFT and AFT president, Randi Weingarten (any wonder why we get Yom Kippur off?). Also of note, my principle, Marc Sternburg (seeing a trend here?), several of my colleagues (including .3 seconds of me), and, of course, my students. everyone did great--Marc is the best principal you could ask for, and the students are the reason I teach.

Check it out:
