Amen of the day

It’s been a long time coming, but I know a change is gonna come. Sam Cooke

“Now let me say right off, I can’t do this by myself. I’ll need all the help I can get. I’ll need support from like minded people who know that changes at school need to be made so that these kids who are disconnected from school, from home and/or society can gain a sense of belonging, feel needed, useful and reconnected.” Elona Hartjes, think big, start small, act now

    Pete, I discovered Elona during the summer and return to her often. She is a wonderful resource and I find words of wisdom in every one of her posts.

    Tracy,
    Thanks so much for supporting me by posting my quote here. We teachers need to feel connected, too.
