Family Movie Night
"Auburn Gresham GOLD Education Team Hosts First Movie Night For Westctott Elementary School Families"
In honor of Black History Month, we are celebrating building a better quality of life for our Auburn Gresham children and the support of their primary caregivers, as par of a two generations education strategy. Thursday, February 11, 2015, the Greater Auburn-Gresham Development Corporation, invited parents of Westcott Elementary School to join the Auburn Gresham GOLD Parent Engagement team leaders, Jazmyne Walker and Asya Smith, for an early evening to unwind with us, at the first "Family Movie Night" celebration. We looked for a movie that the entire family could enjoy. It was an evening that ended up being all about the youth! Primarily because they
ultimately were allowed to pick the movie, "Guardians of the Galaxy". The selection of course was made with Principal Dockery's final approval of age appropriateness and hopefully a family favorite!
Everyone was treated to free popcorm and drinks, before they sat back to enjoy the movie. The parent engagement team also had a perfectly timed an intermission, so the students could line up to get thier free refills. This event was one of the first of many movie events, sponsored, as part of our W.K. Kellogg Foundation family engagement grant aimed at "supporting the shared responsibility of families, schools and communities to help students learn and achieve."
Auburn Gresham GOLD'S Two Generation "2GEN" strategy, to engage school, youth, parents and community throughought the school year. A great time was had by the students, parents and the parent engagement team!
