BECAUSE WE SAID WE WOULD!
![]() At the beginning of each school year, representatives of all of our member schools and agencies gather as a community to plan educational experiences that will enhance academic achievement while meeting real community needs. This year's inspiration was Alex Sheen, founder of the "Because I Said I Would" social movement. His nonprofit is dedicated to bettering humanity through promises made and kept. "Because I Said I Would" is a powerful example of how one person can make a difference. On August 6 we reached beyond this one example to ask ourselves . . . "What if that one person is a teacher? Can more than 35 network schools with hundreds of teachers and tens of thousands of students create real change?"
