Mentoring program very reward for participants

Published

Barbara,
From the moment you presented Build a Better Bowie, I wanted to submit the idea of the Bowie School mentor program that Mr. Mark Neese recently implemented at Bowie Elementary and is assisting at all campuses.
Personally, I went through the training.  I was so excited to help someone…anyone!  I’ve been having meetings with my mentee for few months now.  It’s the most rewarding thing I’ve ever done.
I dont have time to write all that I can say about it, but should you be interested in writing a story about the mentor program, I would love to contribute.
Just a thought that I wanted to share!
Have a good day!
 Brenda Ogle
Editor’s Note: Thank you Brenda for the comment. I did a story on the program the week before they began the large group training and the school staff for very excited for it to start. Glad it is making an impact for mentors and students.

The flowers were the Safari Dusk Jamesbrittenia or South African phlox which is the ‘Annual of the Year.’ The combo also featured Supertunia Hoopla Vivid Orchid the ‘Petunia of the Year’ and Heart to Heart Chinook the ‘Caladium of the Year.’

Living allergic in a food-centered world

Published

Food is supposed to bring people together.
It sits at the center of our holidays, church potlucks, birthday parties, first dates, family reunions and late-night kitchen conversations. In Texas especially, I feel like feeding people is one of the purest forms of love we know. We celebrate with casseroles, comfort with pies, and gather around smoked meats and shared desserts.
Food is hospitality. Food is belonging.
But for some people, food is also calculation.
Before the appetizers even arrive, some of us are already scanning ingredients, evaluating risk, rehearsing questions, and trying to determine whether asking those questions is about to make everyone at the table uncomfortable.
