Be a Harambee Reader at Freedom School!
|
We need readers each morning at all of our Freedom Schools! Harambee time is a morning
pep rally that begins at 8:15am every day. The children sing, cheer and recognize accomplishments.
The centerpiece of Harambee time is the community reader who reads a story to the group.
You can bring a favorite children's book or we will provide one for you. If you are interested,
please contact Kim Dickerson at
kim_dickerson@hotmail.com
to schedule a time.
You can see what dates and times are available at
www.freedomschoolpartners.blogspot.com.
Even if you don't want to read, feel free to come visit Harambee and get your day off to a great start!
