In a 9th grade English class at Mt. Jordan, they were reading, "The Miracle Worker", the story of Annie Sullivan, Helen Keller's teacher. The book chronicles the painstaking efforts of Miss Sullivan to teach Helen who was born blind, deaf, and mute. They read the entire book aloud during class for a 2-week period and the teacher stopped periodically to ask and answer questions with her students. As a reward, the teacher, Mrs. Anderson, showed the movie of the same name. A few minutes into the movie, a student asked loudly, "Hey, what's wrong with that girl? She's totally weird."
They walk among us...
