Minneapolis schools are worn to a thread

Try teaching in the secondary schools for a day and facing the problems and lack of resources

...Too many kids flood the classroom. Too few adults can address their social and emotional needs. Academic needs are lost. Those who are ready and willing are outnumbered and outshouted.
