a poem about the soul of a child really greatly about young people and about how we need to invest in them thing we can do is underestimate them that we don't realize how much my grandfather has a my mother is father he has an amazing pattern Amazing Story prior to 1970 there was no Public High School which is my hometown is working as a high school professor in the University High School High School for most of the Town children weren't able to go past junior high so what does that mean for us to be if most of the population is not able to get a higher education past Junior High because education was away for him breakthrough properties do not have a good reputation and he was one of the first class is there I think back in the 1940s that it was open but he realized he had this dream to start a heist and the biology teacher and another physics teacher they decided to start teaching classes the community and so they found someone who was willing to lend building it was a car dealership so all the glass as a teacher teaching classes in a car dealership and that's that's where they began into high schools so what they would do is anytime any of them had a prep they would rush over to this car dealership and teach classes to any child that wanted to come to learn eventually that inspired other teachers to join them so they were able to get Humanities besides just teaching science and physics let's do something about vacation in our town and they started with these three science classes for the community and they're giving up time this is being a service if the purpose of the church is said to be of service in our communities like send it and eventually since the program really took off is only people who had money in the community high school cuz the nearest high school was over an hour away in Monterey I'm inspired by my grandfather died because he saw that there was a need and he wasn't looking for monetary gain or recognition it was simply that
