relaxedGot to talk with one of my ex-RAs, Abi, via IM this evening. She's coming back to Seattle for a visit, having finished her first year teaching third grade in the Rio Grande Valley with Teach for America. Sounds like it has been rewarding for her, and the experience is inspiring her to consider a doctorate in linguistics so she can write curriculum. She was surprised and happy to hear about the label and plans to attend Saturday's show.
