Poet Suzie Johnson-Scott provides editing help to Nine, an aspiring poet!

My students and I are blessed to have many volunteers from the community who share their time and talent with us. During a recent tutoring session, Nine was treated to an enlightening and encouraging moment. He had no idea that his style of writing was reminiscent of Langston Hughes' in "Dreams." Imagine that. Our tutors rock! Ms. Johnson-Scott's book of poetry, "Keep Smiling, Standing Strong," is quite inspirational.
