In other news, I can most optimistically hope that, like this article asserts, my students' worst fear should ever be boredom:  http://www.usatoday.com/story/opinion/2013/03/17/school-security-newtown-gun-column/1979723/

I experienced a flashback/grab-my-heart moment recently when accidentally catching a segment on 60 Minutes.  While working with Job Corps prior to entering public education, I had the privilege of working with one of the Lost Boys of Sudan.  I regret that I do not know what became of him and his journey, and I met the young man when he was extremely new to America - the term "Lost Boys of Sudan" had not yet even been popularly established for the group of around 20k child refugees from their war-torn African home.  The update story that 60 Minutes facilitated is linked below, if you're interested in learning more.
