Approximately two weeks ago, I saw this on Twitter:
I thought to myself, Wow! That sounds like a great opportunity. There’s no way on this good, green Earth that I’ll ever be selected (because, really, who am I?), but I’ll apply anyway. I took a chance as well as about 10 minutes to apply on my iPhone while cooking dinner one night, pressed “Send,” and let out a big sigh at the thought of such an amazing opportunity.
Fast forward to a few days later, I received the following email from the White House’s Deputy Director of Digital Programs, Kasie Coccaro:
Whoa! They selected ME?! I just couldn’t believe it! One of my dreams of meeting the Secretary of Education was going to finally come true AND I was going to also tour the White House AND meet Dr. Biden…wow. Just, wow.
After just a few days of security-clearance and itinerary emails, the…

Mr. Korb Goes to Washington. Seriously. This Tuesday.
“I believe arts education in music, theater, dance, and the visual arts is one of the most creative ways we have to find the gold that is buried just beneath the surface. They (children) have an enthusiasm for life a spark of creativity, and vivid imaginations that need training – training that prepares them to become confident young men and women.”
– Richard W. Riley, Former US Secretary of Education
I have never seen “Mr. Smith Goes to Washington” but perhaps this weekend it should be on my list of films tho watch. On Wednesday, May 6, I, along with 19 other teachers from around the country will be at the Teacher Appreciation Social in Washington D.C. at the White House. This is an opportunity to talk education with the his White House Social is an opportunity to participate in a conversation with Administration officials, including lifelong educator Dr. Jill Biden and Education Secretary Arne Duncan. We will also have the opportunity to get a tour of the White House.
Did I set some lofty Goals this year? You bet! Did I sit and reflectas tho my progress… you bet, ask my wife. Was this one of them? Not quite, but how can it get any better? Thanks to all the White House Executive staff who looked overt the applications and choose mine. I will do my school, fellow teachers, and administrators, and most importantly many students proud. I will follow up later this week with photographs… I hope.
Thank you to my loving wife Julie and daughter Abby for all their support this year and all my years.
