A Climate of CAREacter

Another happy guidance moment: One of the cutest little first graders, this teeny tiny boy, said in his teeny tiny voice in response to my inquiry, 
What does a counselor do?:  Makes people happy.

Today I'm simply sharing a link to one of the most powerful pieces that I have read in a very long time. Interestingly enough, I passed the first two times it crossed my path because I didn't really care for the title. 
A title has to grab me - this post is entitled 
- and I assumed that it might be another expose bashing public schools. 
Boy was I wrong! 
Instead, it makes a compelling argument for creating 
a climate of caring and a culture of character.
So get some tissue and prepare to fall in love with Mrs. Miner, then come back to The Corner to share your reflections.
