When we ask kids what college they want to go to, how many APs they are taking, etc., we are asking the wrong questions about their future. The real questions are what are they curious about, what problems do they want to solve, what do they want to create nytimes.com/2018/03/24/opini…

Some kids carry around with them the burden of a bad reputation. Be the teacher who gives them a fresh start. Be the teacher who sees in them, the potential that their parents see. YOU can be the teacher that helps them “turn the corner.”
