Hi Dr. Bradley,

I am hoping you have read my many past posts..especially that last one about how your book is circulating around our new Queens NY middle school. Queens School of Inquiry (QSI) is a relatively new, progressive, small but steadily growing school that I am working in partnership with .. You can read about it by going to www.qc.cuny.edu/QSI The school is partnered with Queens College and the Early College Initiative. I personally, work for District 75, which is a special education district within NYC. Together we have been sharing resources and I shared your book with them. I have extensive experience with students with emotional issues, yet found your book the best read ever when it came to my own almost 16 year old daughter. I couldn't help sharing it.

Today we were recommending your book, once again ...to a parent...and it came up about you doing a workshop. It turns out Queens College/QSI may be interested in sponsoring it!..Wouldn't that be wonderful...

The contact person for Queens College is Bobby Pineioro and his email is ebertopineiro@hotmail.com. Please contact him for he is making up the schedules for speakers.

You are welcome to contact me for more info as well....Gwen Jones...gjonesmsed@gmail.com

It would be wonderful to be able to have you speak in person!
Gwen

Hey Gwen,
Thanks so much again for those kind words and for the contact. I will pass along that contact information to Sandy, the woman who arranges my events so that I don't screw things up.
Your school sounds great! My wife works in an ES (emotional support) program at our local school and you guys would have a lot to share, i.e. this morning she got a call at 6:30 AM from a student who needed a ride to school. Teachers like you guys going above and beyond make all the difference to kids who are barely hanging on. Please keep up the great work!
