Born Free!
And beauty surrounds you
The world still astounds you

Now that the dress code issue has been addressed, the next new standard should be professional proficiency. Every teacher should be required to take a test to prove they are knowledgeable concerning the subjects they are asked to teach. Unfortunately, a college degree from some institutions today does not assure this is a given.
