Teachers and educators always impress me. It is truly a calling and really good ones have the power to shape our children in powerful ways. I knew Janey Morris, Principal of Four Star Academy was a people changer within minutes of speaking with her. I was curious about why a school had used ImagiTales to produce over 400 books? I decided to start at the top and was impressed with her openness and her entire staff. Four Star is a publicly funded Pre-K initiative school committed to literacy and building a solid educational foundation for their kids. Janey shared many different ways Four Star was using ImagiTales to teach reading concepts, build self-esteem and engage parents in the educational process. Our conversation led to how to make ImagiTales more affordable for schools that want to use the books for more students. Janey shared she had used grant money and called upon local civic clubs and corporate sponsors for funding to cover the cost of the books. She really thought outside the box and challenged ImagiTales to change our pricing structure for schools. On our Home Page under “Teacher’s Corner” you will find information about our Schools Pricing Program. I am thankful for the Janey Morris’s in this world and hope educators’ impact my children with her type of passion for teaching children.
