The educational and often over-looked social tribulations students experience in school help to guide them on their n...

By Broadus Schools Superintendent Jim Hansen Last summer I had the good fortune to replace the plumbing in an old trailer house in North Dakota. During my many trips to the hardware store the same young man was always there eager to help me carry out supplies.

The young man informed me they were not allowed to receive tips. I informed the gentleman that he had a good work e...
