What’s Up with That?
Principal Tish Howard of Washington Mill Elementary School in Alexandria, Virginia, had a bus problem. The students were rowdy. When she got the call, she decided to ride the bus. But not only did she ride the bus, watch the video clip to see how she turned the bus ride into a Rolling Book Club! This video clip was developed by the district website, School Scene, which provides many inspiring and positive stories about their district. We thank Principal Howard for giving us permission to use her story. We thank School Scene for providing such an uplifting website.
