I Am Me - Paperback

by The Oliver Ellsworth School (Author)

We want change! We know that each student comes to us with a story and a voice; as educators, we strive to amplify those voices in safe and dynamic spaces. The I AM ME Project gives public schools back to the public, through the medium of family. How do we enhance school climate through the representation of those who have gone silent? We offer you one town's collection of stories.

Use this book to supplement curriculum, increase engagement, and encourage dual-capacity thinking. Avoid the pitfall of the one-size-fits-all narrative. Give students the space to express their unique truths, values, and possibilities.

How do we move from institutions of oppression to empowerment? This book closes disparities between a student's actual experience and interpretation of their experience. How do you plan on enhancing school climate through the representation of those who have gone silent? We offer you one town's story.

Schools across America want to give students a voice. They truly can.
