Jim Walberg and the Tri-Valley Realtors provided dictionaries to 3rd grade classes.

Jim Walberg adopted Doughtery Elementary School’s third grade class and provided dictionaries for all of them. This was part of a school district-wide project from the Realtors Valley Marketing Association that adopted all the third grade classes within the Pleasanton and Dublin school districts.

The Realtors are the worst group of professionals in keeping the community informed as to the MANY ways they support and give back to their local communities. This is one of the most giving group I have ever participated in. Sometimes I think that consumers view Realtors as just trying to close their next escrows because they need to money. That may be true for a very small minority of them, but the large majority of Realtors are constantly looking for ways to support the needs of their community. The needs of the local schools are some of the most important ones on which they focus.
.
As most of you know, the local schools are usually under funded in many areas of their budgets. In spite of that fact, the health and quality of our East Bay Schools continue to be ranked in the highest categories in the State. One of the key reasons for that is the support of the parents and the business communities. It is in all of our self-interest to have the best possible educational experience for our children. If that was not the case, it would negatively impact so many aspects of our economy – from real estate values, to the ability of companies to attract great employees.
.
It takes so little effort to make a difference in the needs that surround us in the East Bay. Take a moment and see if there is something you might assist with in your local community. There are hundreds of opportunities that will make a difference in the quality of the lives of those around us. Let me know what you discover and how you are involved in your local community.
