Holiday Safety Seminar

The Holiday Safety Seminar which was held yesterday November 14, 2007 at the NEW Kennedy Senior Wellness Center located at 324 Kennedy Street NW. We had a lovely time with about 30 in participation. I presented a PowerPoint which highlighted numerous safety tips. Not only ones that can be used this time of year, but ones that can carry on throughout the whole year.
We enjoyed the time of fellowship and we also engaged in good discussion. A couple of our seniors had life experiences to share with the group. Many questions were asked and input was made.
Thanks for all of those who participated and we hope to have another event like this soon.

Paul Public Charter School Honors First Lady of the City Mrs. Michelle Fenty

On October 30, 2007 students and faculty of Paul Public Charter School located on 7th Street NW between Peabody St. and Missouri Ave. NW took time out of there day to honor the Fist Lady of Washington, DC, Mrs. Michelle Fenty.

The children expressed there many talented artistic side through music, dancing, and poetry reciting.

Many faculty of the Paul Public Charter School were recognized as well, but the main recognition was for Mrs. Fenty.

With her soft accented voice she gave an amazing speech about the importance of reading. This was the second time Mrs. Fenty visited the school. Earlier in the year she read stories to the children.

I personally had the opportunity to attend this wonderful ceremony and had a magnificent time.

One of the students gave me a personal tour of the newly renovated school. All the children were well behaved and knowledgeable.

It was a very nice day and I am grateful I was invited to attend this wonderful event.

Thanks Paul Public Charter School
