RAA & Why We Pulled the Plug on Dr. Seuss
Today is the first day of the NEA’s Read Across America (RAA) week, and for the second year in a row I’ve sent emails to my children’s teachers and school administration informing them that my daughters would not be participating in activities that are centered around Dr. Seuss. This was not an easy decision, nor was it one that my husband and I made lightly, but it’s the step we knew was right for us after “knowing better” about the legacy of Theodor "Dr. Seuss" Geisel.
