Students:
From Meagan, 5th grade student in response to the question: "Do you enjoy being in a group (lunch bunch, study group, etc.)
" Yes, because sometimes when I'm around some of my friends that are not in Study Group or Lunch Bunch, I feel like I have to explain things a whole lot more, but in study group and lunch bunch, I feel everyone understands."

From Administrators:
Karen Furman, Associate Superintendent Elementary Education, Kennedale Independent School District, Kennedale, Texas.
"We loved the presentations you provided a couple of weeks ago! As you know, our district is experiencing a paradigm shift and many of our educators have been apprehensive - change is hard. However, the district's faculty/staff participants in your presentations were inspired by your enthusiasm and empowered by the ideas you shared with them. The vision of meaningful learning for all now seems "do-able" where before it may not have. We, as a district, will continue to work toward that vision and hope to continue our affiliation with you in
support of that. Thank you so much."

Additional Comments:"Thank you for such wonderful insight, information and resources. You have saved my teacher many hours of work with all the pre-made forms and resources you provided.
