Table of ContentsReviewsFinally someone understands that it is not only foolish to legislate academic excellence, it is impossible. -- Robert D. Gulash, dean of students, Caseville Public School Ryan Donlan's perspective on teaching and education is provocative, even though his message may seem irreverent in places. He will challenge what you believe the state of affairs should be. He is impassioned, borne by his professional experiences. Through his opinions, he encourages the reader to consider carefully how things are and what should change. -- Michael B. Gilbert, professor and chairperson, Department of Educational Leadership, Central Michigan University With this book, Ryan Donlan has done what should be done on a daily basis for the veteran teacher. Too often these teachers are left to survive on their own- they know what they are supposed to do. The veteran teacher needs support and praise for a job well done. As administrators, educators, and society as a whole, we are not positive enough and do not praise others for a job well done. Donlan has captured the essence of life for the veteran teacher. His book lends encouragement to those teachers and shows them how they can support themselves if nothing else. It is those teachers that make all other professions possible. -- Dale L. Moore, principal, Marlette High School, MI Within the pages of his book, Ryan Donlan offers advice to the experienced teacher in a straight-forward and practical manner.
