Acknowledgments

Thank you to my grandmothers, Betty Aune and Virginia Bell, whose strength of character, steadfast faith in God and family, grace, beauty, charm, and intelligence inspired me to reach for the stars and embrace life’s endless and joyful possibilities.

~ Beth Aune

Many thanks to all the staff at Future Horizons for all of their hard work behind the scenes. This truly is a collaboration. My contributions to this book would have never been possible without the help of many families, dedicated professionals, and educators (especially the teachers and staff at Belvedere Elementary). I am grateful to you all for your willingness to share your experiences and your lives with me, and I am awed by your determination, excitement and perseverance in changing a child’s life. My love and gratitude to my wonderful family and friends. I am so incredibly blessed to have you in my life! During times of laughter, stress, tears and joy, I can always count on you. Lastly, but not least, to God, who reminds me often that He has a plan for all of our kids (Jer 29:11). We are given the privilege of being part of that plan.

For William, David, Dominic and Melina - the next generation of students.

I would like to acknowledge those who made it possible for me to have received my own education when I was young: my mother, father, and sister had the foresight to realize that only with the appropriate education would I find myself in a position to choose my future. I want to further acknowledge those teachers and administrators who did more than just present curriculum, but saw within me and others a potential to perhaps create a positive difference during the short time we are here.
