“Our Children - Their Education”
This year’s initiative, “New Beginning: Our Children - Their Education”. The Education Committee intends to help parents give their children the gift of trust and self confidence. It is our contention that parents need to know what their children are doing at school and to become actively involved in helping facilitate their success. Learning skills do not develop in a vacuum; they develop through learning and internalizing the process. A love for learning develops from the satisfaction of understanding and the curiosity to know more.
Our commitment:
-
We will work closely with the Superintendent of schools, board of education, teachers and parents that our children are not denied the education they deserve.
-
We will strive to prevent great kids from falling into the category of at-risk students.
-
We pledge that all our children have the opportunity to reach their full potential and achieve their dreams.
Education has always been one of our Nation’s top priorities. We place great reliance and confidence in our public education system, recognizing that it is one of the most important institutions of our free society. By helping our young citizens learn and d skills, we believe a quality education is paramount for those who wish to achieve their full potential.
We are organizing our Education Committee to help parents and their children develop healthy self esteem and confidence so as to be able to navigate the school system and its expectations successfully. The committee will communicate with school professionals to positively learn what the children are experiencing at school and what issues they face; it means listening and being there for them; it means offering encouragement and helping them develop self confidence.
As part of our commitment to our children’s future, we must also teach young Americans to live lives of integrity and purpose, and to realize the importance of loving others and contributing to their communities. The committee will help guide young people to understand universal values such as tolerance, honesty, commitment to family, service to others, and respect for the dignity of every life, our schools and communities can help our Nation fulfill its great potential.
Please join us in promoting education and self confidence. We need your help. Contact us and express your interest in joining the Education Committee. By raising expectations and insisting on results, we can make a difference in the lives of all our children.
