School Is Cool...Attendance Matters is a movement developed to address the lackluster drive in young children to attend school. Our society is struggling to instill the virtue of pursuing education as a key component of success. Even elementary age-children do not see how vital committing themselves to the acquisition of knowledge and adequate socialization skills are life-changing endeavors that, if not mastered, can lead to a life of deficiency and failed purpose.

The Adventures of Sherrie and Chubbie was inspired by a story written in the early 1980’s by my mom, Carolyn Brown Poitier. After publishing the first adventure, I was inspired by fans to create additional adventures. In the past year, I have written a series that takes stories from my life that highlight my counseling personality and provides a platform for my experiences with youth to come to life. As a child, I was a peer counselor, and Sherrie & Chubbie’s future adventures teach children good character through rich stories.
