Here’s a moving poem about parenthood, about finding one’s self to be an adult but still trying to care for the child within. Mark Jarman teaches at Vanderbilt University.
In the Nov. 11 edition of the Kent Reporter, Charles Hoff wrote a commentary on the need for community involvement in our schools. As a Kent School Board member, former teacher, college professor and longtime community supporter, I couldn’t agree more. Research and common sense is very clear - the more the adults of a community get involved in our schools, the better our kids’ chances will be for informed, prepared, prosperous, healthy, happy and impactful lives.
