When I was very young I wanted to be a teacher in a one room school house or at least like my old fashioned grammar school. Then they all changed. I never became a school teacher but I ended up teaching banking in a one room school house. I also married a police officer and Detective for 38 years. My son and I just lost him after his dedicated service of 33 years.
Wish I were still teaching. What a delightful experience. I now live in a very isolated village in CO, but our school was closed. Now the kids travel round trip 50 mile to a different county, or they must travel 75 to a different state. Our old school building sits empty. Wish the kids were still here. Our road to the in state school has snow gates. Sometimes there can be no school for our kids.
I grew up in a similar situation. I'm content alone in the wild & self-reliant. I consider it a great upbringing. We didn't go to church, didn't learn team sports, so I have no interest in those now.
Cheap rent, and if you missed it - an Indian Reservation, so that's also a factor (the history of the US government putting Reservations on the most remote, marginal land is a well known aspect of the BIA - Bureau of Indian Affairs) into why the place exists.. Chances are, there are just enough part time jobs available to support that scant population or the people that do live there commute. It's not unheard of. I'm in the northeast and stories of businessmen commuting 4 and 5 hours each way to go to New York City aren't unusual.
@@JW-uy2on It's almost 5 hours to drive to New York City, and yes, there are mid-level executives that make the commute. Leave by 4 am, into the city by 9 - work until 5 and home by 10. Rinse and repeat.
This is encouraging and it shows what can be done with "little."
I would like to see more reporting like this, instead of all of the negative and toxic political news. 👍
God she made me cry at the end I wish I had teachers who cared as much as she does
That's BEAUTIFUL. I Tip my hat to the multi talented teachers.... BRAVO!!!!
Amazingly beautiful! Congratulations to all who make it work.
Amazing story to share, thank you. Displays human spirit in a way we seem to have forgotten, or possibly never thought about.
I went to 1 room school 7 kids 60 miles from town. Best ever.
one-teacher schools are brilliant. my siblings and i attended one. when we moved it closed for lack of numbers...so sad.
What a wonderful story..... too much love and passion for other... very inspiring!!! You are real heroes!!! God bless you all!!!
congrats my dear colleagues... being a teacher is just ..AWESOME!!!

Teacher of the year I think

These schools should look into Montessori... Montessori classrooms are multi-age...
I think I'm in love with the teachers aide. Gorgeous
WAO.......Amazing
AMAZING!
Ahhh seclusion..........beautiful
Wouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu this is IMPRESSIVE!
Amazing.
We need this with coronavirus keeping so many children from going to school!
Wow

Thumbnail looks like Han Solo 😂
Never tell that teacher the odds.
❤❤❤❤❤
Why are people living in seclusion out there? Nothing around and yet the parents have jobs somewhere?

Looks like some hay farms nearby, probable cattle, too.
Seclusion is awesome. No judgy neighbors, peace and quiet. Time slows down.
@@foodandart5808 4 and 5 hours?? I think that's a bit of an exaggeration.

She looks like that police officer who was getting scammed called by that Indian.
