I'm so glad this was pointed out just in time for people to have passed judgement, & states to have passed laws based on ppt slides full of brains with arrows and colors and SCIENCE...saying more kids need more phonics instruction and everyone but the state needs less choice.

What would happen if you let go of being 'successful' and strove for 'meaningful,' 'fulfilled,' or 'impactful?'
