“The function of education is to teach one to think intensively and to think critically. Intelligence plus character – that is the goal of true education.” —Martin Luther King, Jr.
On this Martin Luther King Jr. Day we want to say thank you for partnering with us. You give our students an opportunity to attend school when they would otherwise be left behind. And as Dr. King advocated, we teach them reading and writing, history and science. And all these lessons are infused with lessons on character. Helping them be leaders in their communities. Always reminding them that servant leadership starts with education.
On Tues, Rachel and Kjersten were special guests in the 4th and 5th grade classes. And the students decided to greet their guests with two songs they learned from Alison Raney their guest from last year! They sang “This little light of mine” and “Do Lord Oh Do Remember Me”.
Its pretty heartwarming!
Thank you for making this possible!
