One great bit of evidence demonstrating the succes of PITR is when one of my district curriculum directors made time in the school day to invite teachers from across the district to come and see this program presented. The first thing she said to the crowd was that she has never allowed a vendor to present products on a campus facility before but that this was an answer to all the questions educators have been posing concerning kids and reading.
South Texas has warmed-up nicely to PITR. The customers have not had the program up and running for full a school year yet, but the enthusiasm is palpable. Many of the administrators I sought out at the beginning of the year have begun to hear about the program in professional circles and have requested a presentation or allowed me share PITR with them and their staff. I have several strong districts with PITR in mind for a core curriculum or as a supplemental program for next year (Fall 2008). I have enjoyed witnessing the power of "Janet" for myself. I have seen the trust educators have in what Janet stands for. They just know that any product with Janets' name attached will be the real thing. Everytime I have presented this program this year it has been met with only positive responses. I look forward to 2008 because the market is ripe for this product and the word is out.
