Fusaro and Mr. B Disrupt Class and Inspire Students

Fusaro caught in the act by Mr. B, aka Edward Biagiotti, with an inspired student.
Fusaro and Mr. B blame the just released film "Here Comes the Boom" starring Kevin James for inspiring them to continue to be the teachers they wish they had.  Mr. B, aka Edward Biagiotti, Inclusion Specialist at Culver City Unified School District, and his friend, artist Darrell Fusaro, who volunteers his time, seem to act more like kids than teachers and yet the results they are having with the school's hardest cases have been miraculous.  School therapists fascinated at the students' progress have inquired as to their methods, but Fusaro and Mr. B don't have any tricks up their sleeves.  They are just a couple of fun loving guys who haven't forgotten how smart and cunning they were as kids.  With that understanding and their desire to inspire they happened to create a unique lunch time class they call the "Culver City Cartoon College" where these kids feel free to be themselves without having to act out.

"When clothes shopping with your parents always ask for black underwear." was Fusaro's parting advice to the little ruffians.

When one asked, "Why?" 

Fusaro and Mr. B went right into a chorus of "Accidents Will Happen" by Elvis Costello as the students filed out laughing.

Inclusion is all about making everyone feel "normal" and everyone's normal is different and unique. You are doing valuable work here guys...keep it up!
