Education! That's the primary focus of this blog--nothing else.

7/5/2016

Real people, sharing real stories, encouraging real people. This blog was created for the primary purpose of helping others, especially high school and college dropouts. In this endeavor, I invite you to share:

*Commitments and/or goals related to educational studies;
*Encouraging words, Bible verses, quotes, etc..., so that seekers will know they are not alone in his/her journey; and
*Success stories. All educational accomplishments are important!

I can't wait to hear from each of you! For those who share, THANK YOU!

I'll be praying and cheering for those recording commitments and/or goals, agreeing with those providing encouraging words, and dancing when I hear of achievements!

Hi! I'm Verna Harvey.

I dropped out of high school before completing the 11th grade. Since that time, I've worked very hard and have obtained my GED and earned three college degrees! Life was extremely hard before earning my GED. With the attainment of each college degree, additional doors were opened.

I know that education will never solve all problems. However, educational attainment will assist in communicating and implementing personal and global changes. That's why I am passionate about assisting and encouraging those without a high school diploma or its equivalent, as well as students pursuing college degrees to, Finish What You Started. (By the way, this is the tentative title of the newest book I'm working hard to get published.)

EDUCATION is so important that I am asking you to join with me or another organization in helping to spur students towards educational success be it a GED or college degrees. America needs to change the current trajectory of illiteracy in our country because we are perishing.

YOU can help change the trajectory. Here's one way. Visit my contact page to start the process in scheduling a time for me to share my inspiring, yet challenging story with students, parents and/or leaders. At the venue, I will share points I've learned as a student, colleague, instructor, mother, and wife. That's nearly four decades--40 years--of knowledge! These points, if implemented, will help students to complete his/her studies. I know firsthand what a difference this knowledge made in my life. It can make a difference in someone else's life as well.

Hope to hear from you soon!
