For years as school begins, I have many student leaders, who are teachers, who take to heart the seriousness of leading their habitat clubs and efforts….one of the most important things ever we have done, is to have students in a county that has denied affordable homes being buit to be able to help work with us on our sites..to plant the see that simple decent homes are not a bad thing, to show youth who have everything that others who have nothing are as fine as they are..and that every student no matter where they live, how much they have, deserve to live in a simple decent home.

So I am reminded agan of leaders like marc Brandon, athletics, teacher at Harvey School, or Mr Hausmann, who is a teacher at Yonkers high school, Mrs, Darcy at Scarsdale High School, Ms lastaria at Eastchester high school, Mr Rubins at New Rochelle High, Ms Pisani at iona Prep, and so many more I cant name them….including Ms Berman at Roosevelt High school, and Sr Mary Alice at Good Counsel along with my friends at Solomon Schechter and Yariv, who is at SAR school…all habitat heroes to me, helping to lead their students in service…so thank you! for all your efforts, it will be another great Habitat school year because of you..you will help me change the county more this year than ever before..and plant the true seeds of education, educare, to liberate..to liberate students from just being SAT hungry success stories to success stories of service, of giving back, of helping to change the world again! God bless y ou!
