[CASL-L] Speaker series

[Loretta Sullivan]

Hello,

In regard to my previous request, speakers do not have to be authors...we
are trying for wide variety of dynamic people as speakers to offer during
what we call our "Flex" period (30 min) for our students to meet/ask
questions, etc.  It is more about exposure to lots of different success
stories/people as a motivational/inspirational tools for our diverse
student body.

Please include a brief description of the speaker (why worthy of the visit
or why recommended).  Thanks!

Respectfully,

Loretta Sullivan
Library Media Specialist
Manchester High School
