Join Us! April 15th 6 PM: Board of Education Office


We have spent the last 8 months working together as a community to create and plan an activity that would bring the students, parents, teachers and community-at-large together. Our charge is to foster an atmosphere where inclusion is a standard and our differences are appreciated, valued and celebrated!

The culmination of our hard work, teamwork and dedication to creating and planning this community-centric activity will take place tomorrow beginning at 6PM at Board Office @ 1200 Myrtle Avenue.

• Raffles every ½ hour!

• Live Interviews by our Roving Reporters!

• Come ready to Cha’Cha, Merengue and Zumba with Us!

• International Cuisine to Savor!

• A video montage put together by the PAAAS T.V. Production Students

• Games, Fun and Laughter Galore!

To the members of the "Comunity 'In' Schools" Committee -- Thank you, THANK You…. THANK YOU!!! Each of you has made my responsibility as the Community and Schools Chairperson on behalf of the Board of Education productive, exciting and fulfilling. Again -- I thank you all!

  1. Good luck with the event. Where we come from is just as important as where we are headed. Learning of the history and traditions of those around us is a very good thing, just as long as we do not allow it to keep us apart!
    The whole is the sum of all its parts!
