Ma tu ti senti veramente libero? ….”libertà va cercando,ch’è sì cara,come sa chi per lei vita rifiuta”….(Purg.I, 71-72) La parola libertà è una delle più usate,nel linguaggio politico come pure nei nostri discorsi quotidiani. Non tutti,però,intendono con libertà la medesima cosa:c’è chi la confonde con l’anarchia, c’è chi ritiene che consista nel soddisfare i propri istinti o biso- gni materiali; qualcuno,più semplicemente,la identifica con il proprio “tempo libero”: ma libero di fare che cosa? Noi non siamo liberi di fare ciò che vogliamo. Certo tutti abbiamo un gran bisogno di autonomia,ma la vera libertà non è poter fare ciò che si vuole, infatti,se così fosse,nel momento in cui ho voglia di picchiare,picchierei; nel momento in cui ho voglia di non studiare,non studierei. Sarei vittima del mio UMORE, della mia non voglia,dei miei sentimenti,non sempre positivi. Libertà è poter realizzare il proprio progetto di vita,è libero colui che si impegna per sé e per gli altri, chi, esplicando le proprie potenzialità,dà un contributo alla società. Essere liberi, in sostanza,significa assumere valori autentici per la propria vita e per la vita degli altri. Un tempo si moriva per la li- bertà, essa era un diritto da conquistare e da difendere. Oggi, come ieri, va salvaguardata perché espressione dell’umanità.

  • ACSA Every Student Succeeding Program Student Story Archives 1996
    ACSA Every Student Succeeding Program Student Story Archives 1996 Region 1 Monica Sanchez Red Bluff High, Red Bluff Union HSD Intelligent and sensitive, Monica Sanchez is a natural leader. Two years ago, she used her leadership skills to recruit and mold members of a local female gang. In the last year as a peer counselor and advisor, she used her influence to positively affect other girls, helping them to stay in school and out of trouble. Monica, a 1996 graduate of Red Bluff High School, is ACSA’s Every Student Succeeding Recognition program winner for Region 1. The program commends students for overcoming extraordinary odds to succeed in school and recognizes the educators who helped them. Monica’s support team included Red Bluff High principal Joe Pelanconi, associate principals Rick Prestwood and Bob Bryson, high school counselor Jose “Pep” Roa and Chico State University’s talent search counselor Doyle Lowry. At the beginning of high school, Monica was involved with a local Red Bluff gang whose members were in constant contact and conflict with young women from nearby Corning. Monica had no use for school. A community effort involving parents, law enforcement officers, probation officials and school staff helped Monica to change. The officials met with parents to help them understand gangs and convince them of the need to work together to help their children. And they met with students involved with gangs or at risk for joining them to show them positive alternatives. Red Bluff High staff, including Pelanconi, Prestwood, Bryson and Roa, met with Monica to discuss the need for her to make difference choices and to explain the consequences of her behavior.
