    Earl F. Hilliard, former Member of Congress 7thDistrict, Alabama
    "I believe that this program is on the cutting edge of preparing our children for the new millennium.  The landscape of our nation and our world is being reshaped through the emergence of technology.  If our children are to live, work and succeed in this changing world then we must adequately prepare them to manipulate technology to their benefit.  In addition we must also equip them with a knowledge of their past that reminds them of the importance of struggle and triumph.”-

    “It prepares middle school students with technology skills that will enable them to be better prepared for high school.  In addition, a side benefit, hopefully, is that it enables minority parents to be better connected to the schools and the school division.”     former Prince William County Virginia Public School Superintendent Dr. Edward L. Kelly
