DIFFERENCE MAKER
Paulette , who is the very active First Lady of Berean , holds a Bachelor ’ s Degree in communications ( University of Amherst ) and two Master ’ s Degrees in Education ( USC & UCLA ). She currently serves as a substitute teacher in the Saugus Union School District . Since moving to Santa Clarita she and Robert have added a second daughter to their family , Courtney Nicole .
Robert and Paulette work as volunteers with the homeless , seniors and innocent people who can ’ t afford their own legal defense .
“ This is an important time in our history for our leaders to speak from a spiritual perspective ,” said Robert . “ We are not here to entertain . We are here to present the word of God . We teach people what they need to hear not what they want to hear .”
Robert remembers well the words of wisdom he got from his mother , “ God has a special plan for you my son .” And he says , “ At every turn in my life God has proven Himself to me .”
For his undying service in the fields of education and religion , Robert Cooper III is this issue ’ s Our Valley Santa Clarita Difference Maker .
