The Education Of Johnny Moore: So You Call Yourself A Teacher

The fictional character, Johnny Moore, represents realistic African American youth that the educational system has failed. Yes, parents have a responsibility, the church has a responsibility and the students, themselves, at a point have part. This work focuses solely on the role of teachers and school administrators as it relates to their role as educators.Teaching is not a rocket science; all students really need is love and acceptance. Can we save then all? Of course not, but we can save more by changing the culture in schools that fail.It is time to train teachers to use strategies that promote growth academically, socially, and emotionally. "When a faculty is helped to develop mutual accountability, a commitment to one another and to the students to work together to improve some aspect of learning and has an effective process for carrying out this improvement, then meaningful change begins to happen not only in a few classrooms but throughout the school."
