| Calling all Health Care Professionals to Mentor a Child. Encourage one child to focus on Mathematics & Science in School. CT Needs Minority Health Care Professionals. To learn more about becoming a mentor, visit the site below. Adults, older teens, grandparents - please consider becoming a mentor Visit :National Institute for Literacy to learn more. OneWorld encourages you to become a mentor for students starting in elementary school. African-Americans, Latinos/Hispanics, other minorities and poor Caucasian students need mentors to help to assure them that they can succeed in the health care field. OneWorld has started a Mentoring Program Specifically for minority students. We Need Your HELP! Be a Mentor to a child who has no academic mentor in his or her life. Help a child to establish a solid foundation for a positive future. PLEASE Consider Being a Mentor! You can change a child's life! We are asking you to devote one or two hours per month to answering questions and to encouraging a child to focus more on Mathematics and Science. Minority students need to see role models in the health care field. Are you a nurse who is planning on retiring soon? Are you a therapists? A mental health professional? How did you know that you would succeed? Who told you it was possible? Many of our youngsters have no one to assure them that they can succeed. Sign up to be that person in a child's life. Become an academic and social mentor to a child. Send us an email to: oneworldpi@yahoo.com. Call us at (203) 407-0250. Thank you. |
| In 2006 we have less minorities in health care classes than we did 10 years ago. Please help to change this. We need Health Care Mentors & Role Models from minority communities to inspire students to study math and science and to consider the health care field as a future profession. Studies have shown that when patients have health care providers from similar ethnic and cultural backgrounds, they are more likely to follow instructions. WE NEED TO CLOSE THE DISPARITIES GAP IN HEALTH OUTCOMES FOR MINORITIES. Please sign up for our Mentoring Program starting in Sept. 2006. To express your interest, and pledge two hours per month, please send us an email to: oneworldpi@yahoo.com We greatly appreciate your support. Please HELP to lay a positive foundation for a child who does not yet know what wonderful things are possible with a good education in Mathematics and Science. You can make a world of difference to a poor child, to a minority child, to a child who does not have a positive role model in the area of education. Thank you for your support, and for your decision to become a MENTOR. Send us an email to: oneworldpi@yahoo.com. We look forward to hearing from you. |
| OneWorld Progressive Institute, Inc. encourages students and parents to recognize and value "The Power of Education" to change lives and the world In April and May 2008 OneWorld sponsored its first 7th & 8th Grade Essay Competition. We invited students from Hamden, New Haven and West Haven to participate. About eight students from Highville Charter, and one student from Amistad Academy submitted essays. We applaud Mr. Scanterbury, a teacher at Highville, for his commitment to his students and for his efforts in their participation. We salute Amber Reed, an 8th Grade student at Amistad Academy; she mailed in her essay, and we commend her for taking the iniative. We received over 200 essays from Hamden Middle School. We applaud the principal and teachers who clearly invested in the topic and encouraged their students to participate. We thank Supt. Fran Rabinowitz, who instructed her middle school principal to participate in the program. In each town we approached the supts. OneWorld awarded a total of 10 prizes; of these prizes 9 went to students at Hamden Middle School. There were some very outstanding essays. The topic was: "The Power of Education" Because so few schools participated, we were able to award more than one top prize to students at Hamden Middle School (HMS) The Winners Are: 1. Jill Clough - 8th Grade - First Prize plus commendation for creativity (Excellent creative use of narrative to answer an essay question) 2. Kyla DeRisi - 7th Grade - First Prize (Presents education as a major contributor to change) 3. Caitlin Hansen - 8th Grade - Essay captured the essence of education as a lifelong endeavor; she wrote "Nest to air, food and water, education is one of the most essential things to my life. It is limitless; it is infinite" 3. Three Second Place Winners: Scott Redmond, Eli Bonadies, Elena Karlsen-Ayala 4. Four Third Place Winners: Heaven Daluz, Highville Charter School; Ari Kagan, Tara Butricks and April Uzzle (all form Hamden Middle School) 5.
