They are more than Teachers !!! ♥️🫶🏻🎉

Today we invested in our GED teachers. We had an amazing presentation by Dr. Fernando Fuentes.

Our training today reminded the teachers it’s often difficult for our students to pursue opportunities they don’t know exist. 💫

They were reminded of the many roles they play in lives of our students.

“We get to help our students discover what the can become, who they can potentially impact & who they can one day inspire.”
-Dr. Fred Fuentes

Thank you to the Bell Whittington Library in Portland for hosting us 🫶🏻

Classes start next week. We are ready to serve our community 📚📝🎓

Did you know her passion for literacy was personal? Her father could not read or write. 📚📝

She started Dolly Parton‘s Imagination Library in 1995. They have given more 332 million books all for free! 🫶🏻💗

Over the years she supported numerous literacy organizations. We honor her commitment to literacy. Rest in peace Dolly ♥️
