A hero of their own
Darren Sproles spent Thursday morning encouraging approximately 30 youngsters who, like the star running back, battle stuttering issues.
When Alex Scharnitzky, a sixth grader at San Diego’s De Portola Middle School, shook hands with Darren Sproles Thursday morning, it wasn’t just about meeting his favorite athlete. It was about finding common ground with someone who has faced and overcome similar obstacles.

In a story in Saturday's Our San Diego section about the San Diego Unified School District's Teacher of the Year awards, the first name of the high school teacher of the year, Philippe Poncey, was misspelled.

Sacramento area school districts consider second round of layoffs
Most local teachers who received layoff notices earlier this year have had them rescinded. But they can't relax just yet.
