Ms. Toni known and beloved by her students, has reinvented a lost product that has been deleted out of our educational system. As we celebrate Women Month, it is our pleasure to bring to you Ms. Toni Saunders. Ms. Toni Saunders is an educator and arts director that is making headlines and headway with her students; from One World Middle School which is in my backyard Bronx NYC. If you read the news popularity suggests there is doom for our youth. Especially in urban communities, that teachers are burnt out underpaid and don’t care about our children. Well I have news for you it’s a lie. There is a remnant of teachers and professionals in their field that care. There are pioneers putting in work to ensure that our youth are offered a chance to be great. We celebrate Ms. Toni Saunders during Women Month for contributions in education and arts. I had the wonderful opportunity to interview her and she has a wealth of information to encourage the hearts of others.
