A quote from Joe Sample: International Jazz Musician & Composer
After an absence of 41 years, I decided the time had come to return to my
hometown, Houston and support the youngsters who were passionate for knowledge
and education.
I became acquainted with others who shared a like tendency. I was introduced to
Marie Elena Cortes and soon discovered that Miss Cortes offers an unusual concept
of educational expansion.
Through writing, kids are introduced to a world of experiences that usually remain
dormant.
I have witnessed some of the productions that include the kids and Miss Cortes
interaction. The kids are enthusiastic and excited about their participation in the productions.
I have also performed for the kids and really felt the appreciation that the kids
extended to me.
I am truly a supporter of Miss Cortes. The program; "Kids Write to Know", is a
valuable aid in support of the education of our youth.
