It's been more than ten years since I retired from teaching in the public schools. I have moved on to other interests and have not stayed current with what is happening in American education. Since I have not kept up with current educational trends, I no longer feel qualified to offer advice.

Many of the pages on Teachers' Mentor required frequent link checks and updating. I fell way behind in doing this. These pages have been removed. There are many current and frequently updated sites that can better provide the same information.

But some articles on the site continue to draw many visitors. These pages will still be available for anyone who cares to read them. These articles are listed in the right column. All current links anyone may have to these pages should still work. As long as visitors continue to find something useful in the articles and I can afford to pay the monthly fee, I will leave the site up.
