Dear David:

I want II give a shout out to the Edmonton Journal IV an enlightening article in fashion on first time teachers wanting II make a good impression on their students with how they dress. Businesslike & professional. The II first time teachers in the article looked pleased & happy in their new job situation & want to show the students that being on top of your game in looks will get you ahead farther in daily life. You'll be more respected.

I'd also like II point out that many name brand clothes can be bought at many fine second-hand shops such as Value Village & Goodwill. This can save the teachers much money on clothing items for which they can use on other expenses. The clothes might be second hand, but they are still in good condition.

Fashion First,

Rory
