Passion Driven Programs

Michele Whitley sent me these videos over the weekend and they made my day. Check out these kids and their teacher from a Staten Island Public School. There is nothing inherently unusual or special about that school or that neighborhood. I am sure that their Pupil Wealth Ratio is lower than many of the suburban districts around here.  I am not sure how they would rank in the "Capital Area Business Review." But I am sure that there is something special about that teacher. Even in these short clips you can tell that it is his energy and his enthusiasm that have transformed this classroom from "another music class" into a place where kids can absolutely take off. It is within our power to do this here at Mohonasen. Hope your summer is going well.
