Woodland Park's local charter school showcased their creativity last week with the execution of a plan that solved two problems with one solution: they hired an unemployed hitch-hiker to teach their high school AP Economics Course. 

It was a cloudy spring afternoon in the mountains when Dr. Schwynne Schekron (it's just a PhD. She's not a real doctor) encountered Anthony "Tony" McStrolls with his thumb out along northbound Highway 67.
