“Who makes much of a Miracle”
Walt Whitman
“Who makes much of a Miracle?” is the title of a talk given by the children’s author and early reading expert, Dr. Ted Clymer, based on the beautiful poem “Miracles” by Walt Whitman. In his talks, Dr. Clymer spoke about the small miracles of helping a child learn to read – a lifelong skill.
We are very lucky and fortunate to have a community of young adults in our K2K organization in Morristown who take these miracles as personal challenges. Today we would like to shine the spotlight on one of our many miracle workers helping our children develop lifelong skills, Laura Romanski, aptly also known as “Sal’s Angel”.
Laura is a founding board member of K2K, the creator and instructor of our Art program and a mentor in our swim program. To know Laura is to Spotlight her journey with one of our swimmers that she has mentored for over three years.
Each Saturday during our swim clinic, Laura works with Sal, one of our most challenging swimmers but one that we knew that with persistence and patience we would get him to swim.
