Dr Sawyer is on the radio WVOX about the wall that fell down in Mt Vernon high school…talking about inequitable distribution of funding..

Overtaxing the poor is not the answer..many Mt Vernonites are renters, the system gets affected…today we look to help volunteer to look at helping with some work in one of the schools..we hope to get many students learning about building…

 

Bob Marrone writes inherently wrong…is this prejudice of a community, primarly African American…if 2 plus 2 equals 4 then it must be..

Great people in Mt Vernon, Yonkers, while the school systems around the cities, are thriving, these systems don’t know if they will be surviving,..pray for them.

I do go to the Yonkers School of Excellence today..a charter school, the only one in the county..with a national reading award..

For us, we have Habitat families in those neighborhoods, we want the best school system for our kids…no question..pray for our work to help our neighborhoods collectively…no question…

 

Today we also get ready for our Green week, our great work, our building communities together Green…exciting times no question..

Take nothing for granted if you will.

Again thanks to our White Plains LPC on our work there with a Brush with Kindness program..

Remember plant a Mustard Seed today, and see great things grow in your community…..God bless, JIm
