Students are saying, "Thank you for the Sammy Program because...
Carole Richards is a sensitive and caring person who really knows how people who can’t read feel. - Timothy H.
I have learned so much and I am so happy because I will know how to read. I am sorry that all the other men did not come to learn because at first it was hard, but now it is more easy, and we have fun too. - Frank E.
It is the best opportunity I’ve ever had, something I never had a chance to get and I’m taking it. I’ve learned a lot and if anyone else gets the chance they should take it. I can read and write a whole lot better. I can read stuff I couldn’t read before. I’m proud of what I have learned and everyone in the shop is proud of me. - Grover H.
I would like to keep on doing these classes because I want to read just everything there is. I also want to know how to spell. I learned so much, but I need to learn much more. I think that other men might want to do this too. Nobody should miss such a great chance to feel great about themselves. I love learning to read. I am happy. - Robert
I like what I am learning. I feel good about reading. I want to learn to read really well. My wife and children are proud of me. I am proud of me. - Samuel R.
I like coming to school. I am happy because I can now read some things. I will work to learn to read better and better. My wife is happy for me. Thanks to everyone. - Otto
I'm a graduate of West Tech in 1980, and I cannot read or write. I am a student at Cleveland Track, and I learned how to read. This letter is to support Carole Richards in introducing her program’s learning techniques to more schools in Ohio. Because if I had this program when I was in school maybe I could have been your president. The teachers are very good at what they teach and helpful when you need help. - Josif S.
