Students prove that beauty is so much more than skin deep at Rochester High School. What a fantastic story. These kids have their hearts in the right place!

An elementary student was told God is not an acceptable choice as an idol, when she was assigned to write about hers.

A mom who lost her daughter in the Sandy Hook school shooting has some very powerful words for educators.
