Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As of May 2013, this poem of affirmation has been dedicated to each Horizons Atlanta Clark Atlanta University Young Scholar. During morning gatherings, mid-day, and in closing Excel-ebrations our Young Scholars enthusiastically participate in the “call response” recitation of “I Am Somebody Special!” These are the moments when we discuss and embrace personal experiences of gratitude, empathy, grit, and determination. Our “call response” recitation creates and confirms one’s personal image as a 21st century scholar. Today I dedicate this poem of affirmation to the Young Scholars of Horizons Atlanta and Horizons National as a springboard for discussing friendships, trusting relationships, purpose, and a sense of belonging. Our children are society’s passport to the future. I salute each teacher, each parent, each grandparent, and each community partner who share my “Let’s Do Something” vision of supporting 21st century heroes and she-roes!
