I chose this same quote. I have felt the same way. In fact, the students I have had that were "from the wrong side of the tracks" are some of the ones I remember the most. I hope I made a contribution to their lives and corrected some small injustices.
I too chose this comment by Louise Derman-Sparks. I think that it is important that we as ECE not only become agents for change, but that we work to ensure that use our voices and our work with children and families to become advocates for change both in our communities and our states.
I chose Louise Derman Sparks quote because she had so much passion to make a real contribution towards those that are hurting, as an educator I feel I can help more by giving all I have to ensure that he little life that is entrusted to me will grow up successfully to become a big success in life. Through my compassion and yearning to help families to get over or through their obstacles with resources that are there to help them, and be the one to advocate for them.
