Bur I believe there is something that distin guishes our board and sets it apart from man y other organizations. All too often , the mot ivation to be on a board is self-serving, e.g. the pre stige of a board position and th e privilege of being part of an elite group of people. But the Hi gh Hop es board is different in a very important sense. Our tru stees are from diverse backgrounds and are mo tivated by a strong belief in our mission to improv e the lives of people with disabiliti es through

Educator WHEN
I
WAS A YOUNG
GIRL,
I was crazy about horses. Forty some years later, this love was rekindled whe n I had the oppo rtuni ty co conduct an educat ional program for LEARN that would use the barn, paddocks and trails of High Hopes as a classroom for
150
urban and suburban middle school stude nts.
The child ren were brought together co support their reading and writing skills while diminishing th e widening academic and social gap between their diverse school districts. For thr ee weekly sessions chis past summer ,
50
students at a time spent their days read-
ing, writing, producing collaborative projects ... and getting their hands, and seats, on horses. The goals of the program were met and the depth of the learning that cook place during these weeks was both unimaginable and imm easurable. Throughout the weeks, students stepped up and supported one another, worked as tean1s chat encouraged and celebrated those who cook risks and those who met challenges. They became guides, mentor s, instructor s, teachers, coaches, cheerleaders. One of my classroom partners, a middle school teacher, rode a horse for the first time and his side walker was one of his own spe-

Ride-A-Thon What was the Ride-A-Thon? It was a fun, easy way for participants, volunteers, family and friends
to
show their
appreciation for all the hard work put in each week at High Hopes. It ran for the course of the fall semester and proved more successful than anticipated. So successful that in the future it will be known as the High Hopes-a-Thon!
