Dear Freire Bloggers,

Consider International Spherical Achievement Networks!

It is my intention through the 911Educators website to stimulate voice from varied sources and alert the international public that immediate ACTION is imperative in order for young people to achieve their full potential.

The mission of this site is to engage and merge global input concerning the topic of literacy. Literacy, in the context of 911Educators, encompasses 21st century aspects of reading, writing, speaking, viewing, and listening. It is an all-encompassing approach involving a 3D perspective, self, school and society which introduces the idea of Spherical Achievement Networks.

My last few blog entries have been somewhat negative--Blame it on blogging during a hot flash. Today I have positive things to say about life (read education). There is an elementary school in Gary called Banneker. This school is in the heart of Gary, the children at this school suffer from the same issues as children in other schools--poor health, single parents, poverty, school with few resources--yet this school is succeeding where others fail.
