We began the first days of our school year with Houston's flooding on our minds. My young students quickly decided to do something, hosting a school event in Week One to raise money for supplies for a Houston school in desperate need. As a teacher, this altruistic attitude is exactly the tone I hope to nurture all year, so seeing it blossom so early is warmth to the heart. They raised $900 and will help choose supplies. Yesterday, they were already worrying about Florida. So am I. #smallstories

@dogtrax I am glad you and your students are the kinds of folks who run toward calls for help. Tell 'em I said so.
