Illinois' Pantagraph (11/19, Coulter) reports that Scott Myers, principal of Hudson Elementary School in Illinois wanted to "give teachers more time to plan lessons," so is taking over each teacher's class for 40 minutes each month. During that time, Myers "uses innovation to reinforce good social skills with students." Meanwhile, "teachers get time to plan specifically for individual students, gifted or struggling, and to organize events for all students. If a grade level has two teachers, they work together." This month, Myers' sessions focused on being kind and not using foul language.
