5000 Hours: November 2011
http://georgewood5000hours.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
Tuesday, November 15, 2011. Almost Another NCLB Victim. Dr Wood, I need your help on this one." My assistant is one of the most competent people I know, so when she asks for help I figure it is pretty important. While you were out yesterday a young woman came in to enroll. She is eighteen, has missed almost 14 days of school this year, and still has several graduation tests to pass. She says she is living with a boyfriend in our district - so? I should not be thinking this way. But I am asking anyway.

5000 Hours: January 2011
http://georgewood5000hours.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
Monday, January 24, 2011. Putting the "F" Word Back in Education. A well-known literacy guru, was talking about schools at a meeting my staff and I were attending. He stood up and said, “I think we need to put the “F” word back in schools. I mean we need “F” (pause for effect), “U” (another pause), “N” (relieved laughter and clapping). He’s right, of course. Kids and teachers could use a little more of the “F” word. I was teaching the finer points of fly tying and casting. Some of that country’s we...

5000 Hours: March 2011
http://georgewood5000hours.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Thursday, March 17, 2011. I used to love March. I attended the University of North Carolina as an undergraduate and March meant madness of the best kind. There was the ACC Basketball Tourney and then the NCAA playoffs—and of course, March meant spring break as well. Now, I hate it. Forget the fact that there is so much more to love as I have grown older. Sure, there is still the basketball—and for all you doubters my Tar Heels have returned! But when you are suffering from madness, reason does not matter.

5000 Hours: Glimmers of Hope
http://georgewood5000hours.blogspot.com/2011/10/glimmers-of-hope.html
Tuesday, October 11, 2011. OK, I’m a ‘glass half full’ kind of guy. And to start this week, what I read in the press gives me just a little hope that thinking about our schools, at least at the state levels, might be a little clearer. First there was Governor Jerry Brown’s veto of the education bill in California. In his letter. And then, my favorite quote from his veto message:. Is fundamentally different from quantity. OK, I know, its California. But how about Iowa? Of course, I could be fooled again (...

5000 Hours: September 2010
http://georgewood5000hours.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
Monday, September 13, 2010. It’s funny how the start of school also marks the unofficial start of the fall campaign season. What isn’t funny is how so many politicians running for office blame kids for our faltering economy. We have heard this blather before. Remember “A Nation At Risk” and the rising tide of mediocrity that threatened the American way of life? I am thinking about this at the start of this school year as we begin to see the effects of the current economy show up at our doors. For several...
