About me:
My personal site Life’s Ultimate Test and profile has received the attention of the Presidential 2008 Obama campaign for striving to bring about change in an area of education that has been overlooked and left on the back burner. The result was accepting the honor of being an Ambassador of the state of Maine for the 2007-2008 Presidential Obama campaign yearbook.
In the year 2000 I was honored for my unselfish attitude as a self appointed community advocate. For my dedication and inspirational work, Adelphia Communications and Romance classics, a network from the American Movie Channel, had selected me to receive the "Cool Women of America Award" Only two were chosen from Maine, and I was one.
I have volunteered in three different school doing craft projects with the students on all holidays. Done special projects, along with sewing customs for plays. Volunteered in the head start program. Been a member of the parent-teacher group, doing many fund raisers for classroom needs , and school playground equipment.
I have also served as vice president of both the People's Action Committee and the Maine Association of Independent Neighborhoods, which deals with low income issues. Held office as Treasurer for Task force on Human needs, as well as second vice president of the American Legion Auxiliary. I was certified by Pine Tree Legal as a community advocate. Volunteered helping the elderly, and handicapped along with anyone in need of help that has crossed my path as I go through life. Started a group for young children in the community called "Tiny Tots" doing fund raisers for t-shirts, parties and a float for the parade to enrich the lives of young children. I also hold many certificates in different fields.
I went on to publish books and screenplays:

Ramifications of Homeschooling
Hello,
My name is Doris Anne Beaulieu. I have a website-Life’s Ultimate Test dot com-on which you can learn more about my mission to change the face of home schooling.
I attended a parochial school as a child in the 1950's. In this Catholic school I was sheltered from the realities of the world around me-from swearing, from public displays of affection, from slang. These are often some of the same things that modern home schooling parents aim to protect their children from. A superior court judg… Continue

I applaud your efforts to improve education. How do your concepts on schooling relate to helping President Obama focus on preventing pollution, climate change, toxic exposures and other threats to our health and the environment? Are you hoping to add these topics to curriculum? Do you think that might help correct the type of narrow education you feel you received?
We have many parents home schooling their kids here in my state, many of those kids are excelling in academics, athletics, community involvement, go on to prestigious universities. One bright young man who was home schooled ran for public office in the last election here in my county and had a very progressive platform that included environmental concerns.
My husband went to Catholic school K-12 in NYC. He wasn't sheltered at all! Very active social life along with great education.
It would be great if everyone had these same experiences with parochial and home schooling.
