Family Night for East African Families
May 15, 2024, 5:30 pm - 8:00 pm
Family Night for East African Families May 15
Family Night hosted in partnership with Building Cultural Gaps (BCG) on May 15 for our East African students and families at 5:30 p.m. – 8 p.m. in the Cleveland cafeteria. There will be dinner, speakers, and prizes.
Why?
- Bring in family voice with student voice, especially our Black/EA families who are not directly involved in our school-based decision making. Foster the “power” of EA families to build community for students who are prospering in school and students who are struggling in school; thus improving motivation, academics, and a sense of belonging at our school.
- With family support get our students out the hallways and into classrooms.
- Create a welcoming, safe, and inclusive environment for all.
Have questions? Connect with Hirsi, Maryam, Yusuf, Millena, Hewan, and Bathsheba (as well as others who we will be recruiting soon) about spreading the word.
