Onto the next chapter..

finished for today

To all of those starting GCSE's and A Levels please remember that your grades don't define you! If you don't do as well as you expected, there are plenty of other alternatives out there! There is life after GCSE's and A Levels :-)

My learning journey continues. Loving every step along the way.

We're thrilled to announce a monumental milestone for the students of Niagara Falls City School District. Through an innovative partnership with Stanford Digital Education and National Education Equity Lab these talented young individuals have now achieved the status of Stanford-level beginning coders, complete with college credits from one of the leading computer science institutions in the world. This is not a "game" Ladies and Gentleman! This achievement is not merely a milestone—it's a gateway. The impact of Stanford's alumni and affiliates, who collectively generate over $2.7 trillion in annual revenues, is a testament to the transformative power of high-quality education and innovation. Companies such as Google, Nike, Netflix, and many others began from the halls of Stanford, highlighting the immense potential that awaits our students. By equipping the youth of Western New York with cutting-edge skills and Stanford credentials, we are leveling the playing field. These students are now better positioned to compete in the labor market, secure spots at top colleges, and ultimately contribute to the global economy. Special thanks to Mark R. Laurrie, Cheryl Vilardo, and Bryan Rotella from Niagara Falls City School District for our partnership (PipeDreamers Foundation) and how we developed a visionary approach to secondary education, college readiness, and career development with a focus on technology empowerment. Together, we are not just changing the game; we are setting new rules for what is possible for our youth in underserved communities. Let's continue to bridge gaps and build futures. We are just getting started! #siliconfalls

First of all I want to give a resounding round of applause to all the amazing students who are being recognized with academic awards this month! High fives all around, seriously! AND let's not forget to also celebrate those students for whom school has never been an easy ride. Let's cheer for those who bravely tackle each and every word of their spelling homework with determination. Let's honor those who put in hours of effort on assignments that others finish in a fraction of the time. Let's uplift those who strategically "forget" their homework at school to avoid lengthy study sessions. To the students who are wondering what it takes to earn one of those coveted certificates, shiny plaques, or first-place medals, let me share this wisdom earned through the years: hard work is a reward in itself. So, whether you're an award recipient or one who narrowly missed the mark, keep persevering. Seek guidance from the Lord when faced with challenges that seem insurmountable, and use His strength to push through tough times without giving up. There might not be a grand ceremony for simply holding your head high when everything feels overwhelmingly difficult, but if there were, you all would be the recipients. A positive attitude is a treasure in itself. Remember, weary one, the ultimate reward we can all strive for is hearing those words, "Well done, good and faithful servant." Our service to God AND others through our obedience and positive outlook is what truly matters. So, my dear children, you are on the right path. (It has taken me years to be brave enough to express this. So, my heart is begging you to be kind or quiet in your reply.)

Well done beta ji, on completing your Master's Degree
