Young Blogger in Kenya

Guess what, world??  Anastacia Njoki has just started blogging!  She is a seventeen-year-old student at the Made in the Streets school outside Nairobi, Kenya.

My friend Darren is there for the next few weeks working with two other individuals from my school district to help the MITS team of educators with their computer network, curriculum, and instructional technology.  You can read about their journey here.  Trust me, it’s REALLY good stuff, and it goes WAY beyond all the techno-babble you hear me spouting off in the hallways at school.  It’s trips like this (even if I’m only reading about them) that remind me why I do what I do: it’s really all about the kids, isn’t it?

Darren passed along the link to Anastacia’s blog this morning.  She would love to hear from individuals outside of Africa, so if you have a spare moment, stop by and leave a comment encouraging this lovely young lady to continue pursuing her goals.  Make sure to check back often!!
