Louisiana teacher's program reaches out to at-risk childrenMONROE, Louisiana — Thirteen-year-old Willie Lockridge used to watch other kids hanging out on the street, and couldn't understand why he wasn't allowed to join them, his mother says.
Now he has better things to do. He dashes out to help elderly neighbors carry in their groceries. He pitches in around the community. He helps his mother, Virginia Cooper, with the dishes.
Cooper credits a program started by Victor Butler, a sixth-grade social studies teacher at Swaze Elementary School in Louisiana.
Butler had read that many boys who turn toward drugs and crime begin doing so in the fourth grade.
For instance, there was a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention survey in 2001. It found that 12.5 percent of all Louisiana adolescent boys outside New Orleans, Louisiana had tried marijuana before they turned 13, and almost 12 percent had tried cocaine.
Butler didn't want his students becoming statistics. He created a club called Brothers Reaching Ultimate Task with Honor and Success, or BRUTHAS. Its lesson: "Life is worth living. The future doesn't have to mean selling drugs."
Butler uses community service and volunteer work to give his students positive experiences. He wants to get the boys thinking about education and careers, and to keep them off the streets and out of jail.
Lockridge said it keeps him out of trouble just by giving him something to do, he said.
Lockridge has seen bums and crack-heads on his street and said he often stays home to avoid trouble.
But Cooper said she's been able to give her son more freedom as he learns to become a leader rather than a follower. She said he now understands why he cannot wander the streets, his mother said.
"You don't want your kids hanging around the streets, smoking drugs and begging for money," Cooper said.
Pamela Higgins Saulsberry, a social work professor at the University of Louisiana at Monroe, looks to the proven methods of the past for keeping today's black males out of trouble.
BRUTHAS, with its focus on community and brotherhood, fits that mold, she said.
"It's about having a sense of community and realizing that what happens to one happens to all... it's about having a spiritual base. And also, of course, realizing that education is the key," Saulsberry said.
