I am sure this essay, published in the September 2011 edition of Harper's Magazine, will be making the rounds at staff meetings and the like as we begin another school year.
Keizer, a popular writer, had been a high school English teacher during the 1980s and 1990s. After fourteen years away from the classroom he decided to head back. After spending a year in the same rural school where he had originally taught, he reflects on the profession as well as the differences that have cropped up during his time away.
