Educators often complain that elected officials have no idea what teachers face in the classroom every day.
Now, a Louisiana state rep wants to change that by forcing school board members to substitute teach for three days a year in their districts.
State Rep. Tim Burns, R-Mandeville, has introduced a bill requiring Louisiana school board members to teach for three full school days each year of their term, according to the New Orleans Times-Picayune.
Under the bill, school board members could teach in any school within their system. They would not be paid for their substitute stints.

I love this idea. I realize it probably won't pass, but I would love to see ANYONE who thinks they know how to manage a classroom or run a school, "walk the walk".
