Grade school was *cough* too long ago, I can’t remember that far. I did help my daughter to memorize The Preamble though, when she was in grade school a few years ago and in so doing gained a new appreciation for it myself. So I know what you mean, and I hope my daughter gets a teacher like your Mr. Ray who will challenge her mind as yours was!
I hope she does, too.
Good for you for helping her with the Preamble. I love reading the Constitution. They framed an entire nation is few words. The elegance in that just awes me.
