Zitat des Tages von Denise Juneau:
When you're educated, you must offer others a road to success.
For some students, school is the only place where they get a hot meal and a warm hug. Teachers are sometimes the only ones who tell our children they can go from an Indian reservation to the Ivy League, from the home of a struggling single mom to the White House.
My parents told me that education was the path to success - and they showed me, taking me to Head Start while they were pursuing their own college degrees.
Children are coming to school with trauma, everyday trauma, that they live under: violence in the homes, alcoholism in the community, unemployment that's 80 percent, not just during the recession. We need to help treat that before they can even go sit in a class and learn about math.
