In this week's vlog, Laura talks with Asheville Middle School Principal, April Collins, and Asheville Middle School's new Community School Coordinator, Shataura Dudley about how the community school strategy is being implemented to ensure student success.
Thanks for tuning in to our continuing vlog series focusing on our community school strategy. For those new to this concept, Community Schools are public schools that partner with the community to create the conditions needed for students to thrive.
In 2021, United Way of Asheville and Buncombe County will celebrate its centennial anniversary. To prepare for this milestone, we've been hard at work, undergoing a rigorous planning process to create a new framework that addresses the root causes and consequences of poverty in our community. At the heart of this framework is our community school strategy.
United Way is committed to the idea that when citizens give, advocate, and volunteer, our community is stronger. Voting is one way to advocate. This page offers some of the many resources and links available to educate you on issues and the voting process in general. Should you have questions, please contact ronkatz327@gmail.com or call 828-768-4559. If you don’t know Ron, he is a retired United Way team member who is providing his expertise as a volunteer.
