Three Days, Three Quotes
My fellow blogger Denny challenged me to do a 3 Day, 3 Quote Challenge and I have accepted. If you are a frequent visitor here I do love quotes and have almost 200 or so quotes posted on this blog. I even have a category in the special features menu above where they are curated and collected. I will be posting three new quotes starting today and running through Wednesday. There might even be a bonus quote if the inspiration strikes.
At the end I will nominate 3 fellow bloggers to follow suit. Stay tuned!

Teachers and students deserve better.
