I’m Elissa Matheny.  I grew up in Durham, New Hampshire, a small university town.  However, this summer my parents moved to St. Louis, so now I have a new home in the Midwest, quite a different experience from New England.   I’m really excited to be in In Class/Outclassed because although I’ve never considered myself interested in becoming an educator, I’ve discovered a recent fascination for learning about educational reform in America.
