Some reflect and collects about our day at School Without Walls and volunteering with Kids Power DC!
Bess Lanker:
-While playing Little Sally Walker (see post below), a brave student named Carla showed Bess up by breaking out into the splits for her dance move! We were ALL impressed!
Sarah Ledbetter:
- Wow, couldn't have said it better myself!
Sarah Davis:
- When working one on one with a student during the after-school program, Sarah's student said to her, " I hate math. I like reading. Why can't I just read a book?" At School Without Walls, they had an entire bulletin board full of college pennants that their seniors have been accepted into!
Jenna Grites:
- "A school is as good as a community that keeps it." This saying was on the Barnard Elementary school sign. This statement really hit home for UNITE members.
We ended the day by cramping into one small motel room to share our thoughts about the events of the day. The day was nothing short of amazing! As we are getting ready to get some rest for tomorrow, I can't help but think, "You'll miss the best things if you keep your eyes shut."
Night world!
