Colorado Springs EA member wonders about her students' chances of future success

Eva Syrovy, Colorado Springs District 11 teacher and Colorado Springs EA member, wrote in her April 29 Colorado Voices column that students need to learn skills that cannot be performed "better and cheaper" than robots.

"We teachers go to work every morning imbued with the importance of teaching kids not just the content matter," Syrovy wrote, "but hard work and stick-to-itivenes, persistence, and doing what you're told."
