Before I left the school building in the afternoon, my principal told me : "I have something for you, see me before you leave". I said "A gift? Our birthday is coming up!", I was kidding her because we have the same birthday!

A Baltimore teacher has won the Baltimore Teachers Union's Extreme Classroom/Library Makeover contest, winning the chance to transform her classroom, which she called "an uninhabitable learning environment." Janna Chevon Thompson was selected based on an essay she wrote, and will soon begin meeting with designers as the union begins fundraising for the project. The Sun (Baltimore)
