Community Parent Forum

Parents , Community Support & Resource Persons, I hope that you all will attend the Community Parent Forum so that we can find solutions to our children's education woes & blockages.

We would like for this to take off as a series of discussions, book readings, parenting exchanges & workshops because each of us comes to the table with a wealth of experience & information to share based on teachings & trial and errors.

Please view this link with your child & start the conversation before the forum.
