Maple Lake celebrates teacher signing day

A few days ago, a local TV station gave a ridiculous amount of airtime to a local high school football player who announced what college he wants to go to.

We love our sports and the people who play them, but something is a little out of whack. Football players aren't going to change many people's lives.

Teachers? That's another story.

So why don't we make a big deal out of students who announce what college they're going to go to in order to become teachers?
