The 3 R's

I believe, like the Bruderhof community does, that the 3 R's of education are not the traditional

Reading
wRiting
&
aRithmetic


but,

RESPECT

RESPONSIBILITY

and

RESOURCEFULNESS.

  1. I agree with this. I'm from the Chicago area and right now (like many other communities), we have a serious problem with gang violence in schools. If someone can read, write, and do math, it doesn't matter if they cannot carry themselves in a respectful manor. Schools need to focus on this a little bit more. :-]

  2. I like your 3 R's. Without those, education is lost. I sure wish more parents were of the same mind!
