    Glad to report after a couple of years in decline, teacher certifications in PA are on the upswing. We need even more good folks to take on this good work.

    Thanks for the reminders, Mitch. Sixth grade? Toughest three years of my life. Fortunately, a teacher rescued me and gave me the encouragement that’s lasted a lifetime.
