You wouldn't believe what I saw on the white house tour!

Welcome back to Crying In My Car, a podcast for teachers! Our hosts Devin Siebold and James Yon are getting patriotic, as they geek out about Devin’s recent trip to the white house. It's not all oval offices and presidential suites, why are the cops showing up to our math classes, and have we found the youngest teacher? 

So this week is a big one for Devin, he was able to get accepted for the elusive white house tour for him and his kids. You wouldn’t believe how much seeing these pieces of American history sparked excitement into both him and his students. From the first president's presidential portrait, to the first podcast set, Devin doesn't leave out a single detail!

On a darker note, did you know that apparently teaching math can be against the law? You heard us right, find out how a special education teacher was arrested for teaching math to their students. So hide your TI-84s because it looks like the cops are coming for you math teachers out there. 

Finally we have a heartwarming story about 7-year-old Alexis Bank who dreams of becoming a teacher. And guess what? She actually got her teaching license! Move over, everyone else, this little girl is ready to take on the world of education.
