Welcome

Welcome to the Liberty Partnership Program here at Hackett.  We are very proud of the crew who came on board since the beginning of the academic school year 2001-2002.  This program is funded by the State Education Department and is located at the Center for Women in Government and Civil Society, at SUNY Albany Downtown Campus.  This is a comprehensive after school program to assist  students graduate from High School into college and/or enter  the work force.

 

 

 

 

ScholarShop

With the help of Gargill's investment for ScholarShop, Liberty has been able to assist our Hackett students plan for their future by ensuring academic success at the middle school and high school level, ensuring academic success.  Every Monday, students take part of ScholarShop, which is designed to help our students think and make proactive choices about their future.  Using Howard Gardner's 8 different "Smarts", students learn to become more aware of themselves, their peers, teachers, parents and the skills needed to succeed in school and in their futures. Additionally, students learn to apply these Intelligences in meaningful situations with the application of  various activities, such as skits, poetry, music, art, and presentations. Below, you will find some poems, that were created by some of our most talented L.P.P. students.

Poetry by the L.P.P. crew

LIFE

Sometimes I feel as though life

should not go on.  Should it go on? Sometimes

I think not because I feel weak instead of strong.  All day

 long I cry inside wanting to die on the outside.  Haters, too many haters, trying

to perpatrate.  I hate being in this world and standing around these

girls that refuse to live in this world right.  It seems like I am the only person guided by

the light.  Because I choose to live my life right, no to smoke weed, do good deeds and act civilized.  People think I am scared, but I ain't nothing like that.  I just don't show my problems, I keep them under a hat.

All I See

All I see is u and me,

Together I want us to be,

you never have to worry

I'll be there in a hurry

To protect you from harm

I'll keep u in my arms

Because it's you that's my only charm

All I see is a man that is tall,

And to you is whom I give my all

I am always there when things are tight to let u know that's

Everything is alright

The things I do for you no one else will do,

So hopefully u feel the same way too,

Soon together as one will be

Cause you and me is all I see

IMiss you

 

You don't know how much I miss you

There's an empty space in my heart

I loved being around you

and now we're apart

Oh how I wish you were here

Here sitting next to me

The only question that runs through

my mind is how could this be

how could this be?

Why don't you tell me

how I miss you so much

If only you could see

If you could see my tears

that flow from my eyes like streams

If you could only feel my anger

that apears in my dreams

I thought I never say it

but you're taken away from me now there's nothing

I can do but think and wonder now I hope you can her my cries because I'm calling

out to you. 

I will always turn to you because I know you'll help me through!

Heaven Sent

 

Your worked so hard

to get where you are

You strived for that light

And you made it very far

 

You've reached that star

That once was so high,

You influenced me

to always try

 

You were there so I would not fall

Even when I didn't care

you kept your faith in me

you knew I had it all along

Without you, I wouldn't have gotten this far

 

Mrs. Brown, you were there for me at anytime

To talk, just to listen, or to just calm me down

Mrs. Brown, I am gald you didn't let me down

Bello-means beautiful and that's just what you are!
