Message: From GoLocalWorcester by Tom Finneran, GoLocalWorcester MINDSETTER™: Frank—the teacher’s teacher. His name was Frank. His nickname was “Mad Frank”. As with all teachers everywhere he had a nickname. That’s one of the first things that students do with their teachers, give them nicknames. Some are affectionate, some are not. Mad Frank was a great teacher. He taught eighth grade English at Boston Latin School. And by the end of the school year, Frank had his eleven, twelve, and thirteen year old students ready for the College Board exams. Any of Frank’s students who made the effort that he demanded would easily crack 600, often breaking 700 on their College Board English scores. As eighth graders! And this was a long time ago when a 700 plus College Board score was something to talk about. Unlike the rampaging grade inflation we find afoot today at Harvard………… http://www.golocalworcester.com/politics/tom-finneran-just-in-time-for-christmas-part-three
