Something for Teachers



A freelance writer and editor based in New York, Natalie Schwartz is the author of The Teacher Chronicles. She is an active volunteer with the Parent Teacher Association in her local school district. She graduated in 1991 from Cornell University with a bachelor’s degree in communication.

Natalie Schwartz wrote: When my son was in 3rd grade, the mother of one of his classmates felt the teacher was not challenging her child. To convey her opinion, she shredded her child’s homework and returned the pieces to the teacher in a plastic bag with a note admonishing the teacher not to assign her child such simple work again.
