If you want to remember what class in the White House looked and sounded like.

This video makes me happy and sad too. 40 minutes but you can watch just a few parts.
Michelle meets, talks to, and makes sure everybody feels welcome and special.

Hi! How are you? Where are you from? So you are teacher. Thank you for your work.

Years ago during the first Reagan admin. I was interning at a DC museum and recall what the staffer for childrens' art programs said about a visit to the White House.

The staffer accompanied a group of special needs, disabled children from the museum who were chosen to for the visit. When they arrived at the White House she said First Lady Nancy Reagan looked at the kids with surprise & disgust.
