"You Made A Difference" Campaign
Know an individual from your school career who really opened a door, offered insight, encouraged, or and laid a foundation of insight which set you (and others) on a worthwhile path? Want to salute that special person, or just be inspired? Log onto YouTube to upload and or enjoy some tributes to teachers who made a difference in the lives of grateful pupils: http://www.youtube.com/umadeadifference
You can also go to Facebook and salute the educator who has influenced you, as a part of the 2011 "You Made a Difference." http://www.facebook.com/YouMadeADifference campaign. It's never to late to say "thank you." After all, we spend a lifetime learning.
