A message from Barbara Smith:

As some of you know, we have been working since the fall of 2008 to implement the highly acclaimed and effective Harlem Children's Zone model in Albany.  We have had very positive and productive discussions with the Albany Public School District administration and board.  

On Wednesday, September 23, 2009, Rasuli Lewis, Program Director at the Harlem Children's Zone, will visit Albany at the invitation of the Family Education Alliance and the Albany School District.  Mr. Lewis will do two information/organizing sessions:

    Session One: 3:30 p.m. Hackett Middle School, Delaware Avenue.

    Session Two: 6:00 p.m. Giffen Elementary School, 274 South Pearl Street.

You are welcome to attend either or both sessions.  The first one is targeted to educators and other stakeholders who may become active partners in implementation.  The second session is targeted to the community at large.

Please feel free to contact me if you would like any additional information.

Best,

Barbara Smith
