May 8: Freedom Schools
This evening we welcome Ms. Rashawn Meekins, the assistant principal at Cook Literacy Model School and the director of the Freedom School summer program at Cook. Ms. Meekins and several staff members will share information about the upcoming Freedom School site at Cook, and also engage us in interactive opportunities to get a taste of the dynamic experiences offered at each site.
Freedom Schools provide summer and after-school enrichment through a research-based and multicultural program model. From June 17-July 26 there will be 10 sites for Freedom Schools in Winston-Salem, all offering intensive literacy development; character-building enrichment; parent and family involvement; civic engagement and social action; intergenerational servant leadership development; and an emphasis on multiple aspects of health.
Volunteers will be helping to provide enrichment experiences to the 50 students enrolled in the program at Cook. In addition, we are inviting donations of a variety of art and school supplies, as well as snacks.
Please join us for a fellowship meal from 5:15 to 6 PM.
From 6 to 7 PM on most Wednesdays, following announcements and prayer, we engage various topics of faith with speakers, panels, and group discussion. Please see our youth and children’s ministry pages for information about concurrent programming for these ages.
Faith in the City
This month’s topic is “Walking the Talk: The Work of Educational Equity Continues.” Join us for a community conversation responding to Dr. Bettina Love’s April 16 talk at Union Baptist Church. As we explore ways to apply Dr. Love’s recommendations in our own school system, what action steps can we take now?
