A Path to Education for DREAMERS
Aug. 9th, 2019 10:00 amPeople are just knowing, state by state, that the DREAMERS are a rather diverse bunch with many different stories individually, and diverse backgrounds of their own family algorhithms.
http://www.ncsl.org/research/immigration/tuition-benefits-for-immigrants.aspx
NCSL documents the various paths potential students are being encouraged or discouraged to have higher education. It is within the scope of each state to say how they want to treat these young people, and discussion about these events and lives can only help to make America better.
From BestColleges, here is another thoughtful article on the internet. https://www.bestcolleges.com/resources/undocumented-students-guide/
I myself am so blessed to have graduated high school with honors, successfully attaining a Liberal Studies Associates of Arts from Fullerton College, and passing my California Boards of Pharmacy Pharmacy Technician exam with three 90%'s after registering successfully and completing my Torrance Adult School five month course. Now Fullerton College' Liberal Studies program leads to higher education for teaching.
It really helped me to enter the country legally; I had been able to pay for my first two DACA's, and thankfully my church friends made sure that my current third DACA was an outstanding vote by ICE and Homeland Security and USCIS to approve of me as a person.

I love Hacienda Heights, where I was able to take a shower, and get new clothes, and get food at the soup kitchen which used to be behind St. John Vianney.

Laura S. Schor's book is basically about the birth of Israel, and the fight to include girls in receiving a quality education amidst the backdrop of two world wars.
Nonfiction is my favorite thing to read. Basically, it's living history that is real.
Annie Landau's story is one of hard work and dedication, about her struggle to make sure that although she didn't see Israel as a nation officially created, she made the foundations that make continuing impact to uplift those who received education and frames teshuvah through service, as with all three of these books.
I was so astonished to see Greg Mortenson's book Stones into Schools make the Near East come to life in my small little room, as I read it almost all morning and made it into almost a hundred pages in!
His turn from aspiring mountain climber, his background with his parents moving to Africa to teach Tanzanians, his respect and reverence for the Pakistani and Afghani peoples, and the "Dirty Dozen" of his Central Asian Institute staff members again bring inspiration to the table when it comes to believing that the right and privilege of girls to learn is so important that his staff and himself would risk life and limb to create so many schools in Pakistan and Afghanistan is such a heartwarming and marvelous real story of many people who decided to be points of light.
The Parallel Curriculum creates the point that every student can be encouraged to develop their minds and can be invited to grow to become contributing members of a plural but helpful society. To help lift communities out of poverty, the energy and act of educating youngers including girls is crucial.
The strikes of many redshirt wearing teachers all across America asking for pay rises and more resources, especially in the city and county of Los Angeles, is tied to a search for increasing better foundations, to help the youth. These teachers are the ones introducing America's future to intellectual and also to social literacy; I would highly recommend these books for any teachers at any level, kindergarten through university, for INSPIRATION, and as successful working practical ingenious models of education.
To the young (or old, then!) mother, I would also like to recommend these, whether her children are male or female or ze.
These books are recommended for every American, because the Mormon values of continual education as an important principle expressed as a vital value is universal in scope also but is an ethos that is Americanly cherished as well.
I am a product of the state of California's public school system: from elementary school, to junior high school, to high school, to adult school, to community college, to more adult school!
I LOVE CALIFORNIA'S PUBLIC SCHOOL SYSTEM!
We may not be in the top ten states but I loved being in G.A.T.E. and I loved D.A.R.E. and I believe for every nearby adult school, a vocation is waiting for anyone interested, just as how that's how I became a Pharmacy Technician.
Born in the Philippines, it was a different scene to go to all girl's Catholic school from Kindergarten through, in appointed theory, college/university. I didn't get to wear a uniform in the beautiful U.S. of A., but I did join Future Teachers Association while in high school with one focus of going to Cal State Fullerton to be an English teacher. I did try to declare my major as Biology, I did want to pursue a more advanced degree in Anthropology also, after classes in Palomar and even Cypress got me thinking better, and more ambitiously.
I am totally a geek, I love learning. I pray for literacy every day, while cherishing mine.
These books are so inspiring. And practical. And lovely! Go read!!!!!

Laura S. Schor's book is basically about the birth of Israel, and the fight to include girls in receiving a quality education amidst the backdrop of two world wars.
Nonfiction is my favorite thing to read. Basically, it's living history that is real.
Annie Landau's story is one of hard work and dedication, about her struggle to make sure that although she didn't see Israel as a nation officially created, she made the foundations that make continuing impact to uplift those who received education and frames teshuvah through service, as with all three of these books.
I was so astonished to see Greg Mortenson's book Stones into Schools make the Near East come to life in my small little room, as I read it almost all morning and made it into almost a hundred pages in!
His turn from aspiring mountain climber, his background with his parents moving to Africa to teach Tanzanians, his respect and reverence for the Pakistani and Afghani peoples, and the "Dirty Dozen" of his Central Asian Institute staff members again bring inspiration to the table when it comes to believing that the right and privilege of girls to learn is so important that his staff and himself would risk life and limb to create so many schools in Pakistan and Afghanistan is such a heartwarming and marvelous real story of many people who decided to be points of light.
The Parallel Curriculum creates the point that every student can be encouraged to develop their minds and can be invited to grow to become contributing members of a plural but helpful society. To help lift communities out of poverty, the energy and act of educating youngers including girls is crucial.
The strikes of many redshirt wearing teachers all across America asking for pay rises and more resources, especially in the city and county of Los Angeles, is tied to a search for increasing better foundations, to help the youth. These teachers are the ones introducing America's future to intellectual and also to social literacy; I would highly recommend these books for any teachers at any level, kindergarten through university, for INSPIRATION, and as successful working practical ingenious models of education.
To the young (or old, then!) mother, I would also like to recommend these, whether her children are male or female or ze.
These books are recommended for every American, because the Mormon values of continual education as an important principle expressed as a vital value is universal in scope also but is an ethos that is Americanly cherished as well.
I am a product of the state of California's public school system: from elementary school, to junior high school, to high school, to adult school, to community college, to more adult school!
I LOVE CALIFORNIA'S PUBLIC SCHOOL SYSTEM!
We may not be in the top ten states but I loved being in G.A.T.E. and I loved D.A.R.E. and I believe for every nearby adult school, a vocation is waiting for anyone interested, just as how that's how I became a Pharmacy Technician.
Born in the Philippines, it was a different scene to go to all girl's Catholic school from Kindergarten through, in appointed theory, college/university. I didn't get to wear a uniform in the beautiful U.S. of A., but I did join Future Teachers Association while in high school with one focus of going to Cal State Fullerton to be an English teacher. I did try to declare my major as Biology, I did want to pursue a more advanced degree in Anthropology also, after classes in Palomar and even Cypress got me thinking better, and more ambitiously.
I am totally a geek, I love learning. I pray for literacy every day, while cherishing mine.
These books are so inspiring. And practical. And lovely! Go read!!!!!

The following are notes about caring about yourself, healing and recovery, caring about others, and civility. I had a chance to see a visit from PR PSN and use the warm line in Long Beach, CA, and to use the warm line and do Spanish bible study from PR PSN in Culver City Santa Monica area, CA, and to receive two whopping hours of helpfulness and compassion and understanding on Mondays in Norwalk, CA, from PR PSN and since I am no longer on Facebook posting relentlessly every day, and since I share all almost all of the things I love on this here blog, where it says I've done that since 2010, then. Here. The awesomeness of a Project Return, from notes I've taken when they've cheered me up, and cheered me on.
