Again, I wonder what OP's position is on teachers who've traveled the world but have never been to Jamestown? Fairfax is full of such people.[/quote]

not OP but i think this is great if the teacher also makes an effort to share or integrate those experiences into his/her teaching to get the children excited about something, regardless what subject s/he teaches.

but again if a world-traveler teacher who happens to teach jamestown feels s/he is too cool for a trip there, that's a different story.[/quote]

Agree. A teacher traveling to Paris and Netherlands but doesn't have the time and money to visit historic places 1 or 2 hrs away from his/her home???[/quote]

A teacher who travels to Paris and Netherlands obviously has the time and money to visit historical places near his/her home. It's all about preferences. Clearly he/she doesn't want to do that. Maybe they've read the story, know the history and find international sites more interesting. I'm not seeing the problem. I'm just seeing a bunch of insecure, likely unsuccessful people trying to find a way--something--to look down on others for to make themselves feel better.[/quote]
