INSTRUCTOR GUIDANCE
WEEK FOUR
*Special thanks to Dr. Patrice Jones for sharing her original guidance in this document.
Did you know there is a National African American Parent Involvement Day (NAAPID) that takes place in schools across the country in the month of February? Inspired by a speech during the Million Man March in 1995 that challenged all the men in the crowd to give back to their community, Michigan school Principal Joseph Dulin initiated this movement as a day of events encouraging parents to get more involved in their child's school. “It comes during Black History Month,” explains Dulin, “and I thought it was a tremendous time to introduce it as a project for parents to get into our schools to exchange notes, phone numbers, emails, have conversations and get in touch with the teachers” (Cavanaugh, 2016, para. 6).
Although the day is geared toward African American parents, the schools encourage every parent to participate for a common goal of promoting parent involvement, eliminating the achievement gap, and creating partnerships among stakeholders. Hugh Price, retired CEO of the National Urban League and founder of Campaign for African-American Achievement, explains that "community norms have traditionally played a particularly central role in the lives of black Americans" (Price, 2008, p. 19). A variety of students from different cultural backgrounds benefit from the help that school-family-community partnerships can provide. When schools use the resources at hand, they have the capacity to improve students' achievement and provide strategies that parents can use to develop skills needed in continuing to help their children. What are your thoughts on having a day specifically to get African American parents involved in school? What types of resources are used to prepare for the day’s events?
Continuing along the same lines of meeting the needs of parents, educators who are culturally responsive will take it upon themselves to learn what is needed for students and parents from diverse backgrounds. It has already been established that when parents get involved in their child's education by doing such things as attending school events, children thrive academically; however, the lack of financial resources experienced by some families causes a struggle in promoting parental involvement through the conventional ways. Roberts (2011) notes that a large number of economically-disadvantaged students come from diverse backgrounds. Therefore, as educators, there are times when more prescriptive strategies for assisting parents to become involved are needed. Hjalmarson (2011) discusses a variety of different strategies to help relieve some of the struggl ...

Breast cancer in postmenopausal women with hormone receptor-positive (HR+) status is a common and complex condition that necessitates a multifaceted approach to management. HR+ breast cancer means that the cancer cells grow in response to hormones such as estrogen and progesterone. This subtype is prevalent among postmenopausal women and typically exhibits a more indolent course compared to other forms of breast cancer, which allows for a variety of treatment options.
Diagnosis and Staging
The diagnosis of HR+ breast cancer begins with clinical evaluation, imaging, and biopsy. Imaging modalities such as mammography, ultrasound, and MRI help in assessing the extent of the disease. Histopathological examination and immunohistochemical staining of the biopsy sample confirm the diagnosis and hormone receptor status by identifying the presence of estrogen receptors (ER) and progesterone receptors (PR) on the tumor cells.
Staging involves determining the size of the tumor (T), the involvement of regional lymph nodes (N), and the presence of distant metastasis (M). The American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) staging system is commonly used. Accurate staging is critical as it guides treatment decisions.
Treatment Options
Endocrine Therapy
Endocrine therapy is the cornerstone of treatment for HR+ breast cancer in postmenopausal women. The primary goal is to reduce the levels of estrogen or block its effects on cancer cells. Commonly used agents include:
Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulators (SERMs): Tamoxifen is a SERM that binds to estrogen receptors, blocking estrogen from stimulating breast cancer cells. It is effective but may have side effects such as increased risk of endometrial cancer and thromboembolic events.
Aromatase Inhibitors (AIs): These drugs, including anastrozole, letrozole, and exemestane, lower estrogen levels by inhibiting the aromatase enzyme, which converts androgens to estrogen in peripheral tissues. AIs are generally preferred in postmenopausal women due to their efficacy and safety profile compared to tamoxifen.
Selective Estrogen Receptor Downregulators (SERDs): Fulvestrant is a SERD that degrades estrogen receptors and is used in cases where resistance to other endocrine therapies develops.
Combination Therapies
Combining endocrine therapy with other treatments enhances efficacy. Examples include:
Endocrine Therapy with CDK4/6 Inhibitors: Palbociclib, ribociclib, and abemaciclib are CDK4/6 inhibitors that, when combined with endocrine therapy, significantly improve progression-free survival in advanced HR+ breast cancer.
Endocrine Therapy with mTOR Inhibitors: Everolimus, an mTOR inhibitor, can be added to endocrine therapy for patients who have developed resistance to aromatase inhibitors.
Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy is generally reserved for patients with high-risk features, such as large tumor size, high-grade histology, or extensive lymph node involvement. Regimens often include anthracyclines and taxanes.

Pharmacology of 5-hydroxytryptamine and Antagonist
5-hydroxytryptamine or 5-HT or Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that serves a range of roles in the human body. It is sometimes referred to as the happy chemical since it promotes overall well-being and happiness.
It is mostly found in the brain, intestines, and blood platelets.
5-HT is utilised to transport messages between nerve cells, is known to be involved in smooth muscle contraction, and adds to overall well-being and pleasure, among other benefits. 5-HT regulates the body's sleep-wake cycles and internal clock by acting as a precursor to melatonin.
It is hypothesised to regulate hunger, emotions, motor, cognitive, and autonomic processes.

COMMUNITY ACTION PARTNERSHIP: MOLINA FOUNDATION BOOK FAIR
- 1. Community Action Partnership: Molina Foundation Book Fair Last May, Community Action Partnership of San Bernardino partnered for the second year in a row with the Molina Foundation to present the 2019 Summer Book Fest and Resource Fair. CAPSBC held the first annual book fest the year before in 2018 to provide new books to hundreds of children across San Bernardino County as they kicked off their summer vacation. Studies show children who are exposed to many books from an early age have improved vocabulary, as well as increased awareness and comprehension. In addition, books expand their educational horizons and benefit them long into adulthood. No one knows about the value of early reading better than Dr. Faustino Bernadett and his wife Dr. Martha Molina Bernadett, M.D., MBA, who founded The Molina Foundation back in 2004. The goal of this national nonprofit organization is to reduce gaps in access to education and health. It has worked with more than 2,500 organizations and schools over its lifetime, donating more than 5.5 million books, as well as hosting workshops and programs for educators and families. The foundation works alongside community-based organizations and joins with preschool programs, clinics, churches, schools, family service organizations, and civic organizations that serve low-income and at-risk families. The Molina Foundation works hard to make sure a new generation of students has access to the books they need within their schools and after-school programs. Book Fest: A Valuable Resource for the Community The Summer Book Fest 2019 and Resource Fair was an event that naturally followed the progression of Faustino “Tino” Bernadett’s outreach efforts. It was made possible by community support through sponsorships, donations, volunteers, and partner involvement. The event, designed to provide children with valuable books that will serve to advance their academic growth, also gives parents access to the resources they need to help their children achieve academic success.
- 2. At the Summer Book Fest 2019 and Resource Fair, kids received free age-appropriate books and were given opportunities to “Read with the Butterfly,” get their faces painted, and receive valuable educational materials. The children’s books were valued at $88,000, made possible by a grant from The Molina Foundation to CAPSBC as part of their “Launch into Learning” campaign. This campaign will also provide free educational resources to help children, parents, and caregivers develop a creative and nurturing atmosphere through the summer months as they read and learn together. CAPSBC does so much more for this youth of this county. It partners with a variety of groups and events each year to provide school-age children with backpacks and school supplies. Recent events include the Inland Empire Health Plan Backpack and School Supplies giveaway, and Assemblyman Mike Morrell’s “Stuff the Bus.” For more information on the Community Action Partnership of San Bernardino, visit https://www.capsbc.org/. A Legacy of Service and Love of Reading As Vice President of The Molina Foundation, Faustino Bernadett knows the value of a good education. He also knows the strong foundation books can provide as a springboard to that education. He and his wife created The Molina Foundation out of a commitment to family and
- 3. education, and it carries on the Molina parents’ education legacy (C. David and Mary Molina are former elementary school teachers). The Molina Foundation Through books, Dr. Faustino hopes to foster and nurture an ongoing love of learning. To that end, The Molina Foundation’s program Book Buddies distributes new books to community agencies serving underprivileged children and families. The goal? To create and enhance word- rich, healthy homes. It also fosters a WordUp initiative to empower children and families, and instill strong health and literacy skills. It achieves this through simple activities and tips to prepare them for success in kindergarten and beyond. There are also workshops for preschoolers, kindergarteners and first graders all over the country, held regularly. On My Way to Kindergarten is another program of the foundation. It’s a collection of hands-on resources for children between the ages of three and five that paves the road for kindergarten. Kids are given access to valuable resources that were actually developed with input from kindergarten teachers across the nation. Dr. Faustino Bernadett hopes the mission of The Molina Foundation continues on for many generations. To learn more about The Molina Foundation and its many programs and resources, we welcome you to visit The Molina Foundation today.
