Ready Schools Project (RSP) Green Eggs and Ham Volunteer Breakfast 2007
Washington, DC--October 13, 2007- More than fifty district volunteers including parents, students, principals, and community members joined with DC VOICE for a discussion breakfast on volunteer impressions and community priorities for the soon to be released Ready Schools Project Report. DC VOICE was able to formally thank and congratulate everyone, especially volunteers that made the Ready Schools Project a possibility. This year's Ready Schools Project was particularly exciting with the completion of auditing 137 schools and provided attendees of the breakfast a mouthful to discuss. Discussion topics ranged from what volunteers liked most about Ready Schools Project to what should this year's report reflect as well as how DC VOICE and the community can use this year's Ready Schools Project for action in the future? Volunteers were also reminded to save the date for the release of the Project Findings on November 10, 2007.
