When I worked inside DSHS the managers told us that day care providers were dumb so dumb we really needed to have materials written at a fourth grade level for them. I've met many educated, well read folks coming through my class. In fact every class we each share a recommendation for a book or a film for each other to perhaps read or see. There, indeed, are many high class individuals who come through my class.
