A New School Year!

By Children Rising | August 25, 2011

School year 2011-2012 is just around the corner!
Students of Oakland Unified will say goodbye to summer vacation this weekend as public schools welcome them back into the classroom on Monday.
This is an exciting time for Children Rising because we get to see our kids again and come alongside them in their growth process.

With increased staffing at Children Rising this year, we are hoping to develop new relationships with schools, deepen involvement with our current schools, and train new volunteers. Volunteers are, of course, the heartbeat of Children Rising. It is one of our many joys to see volunteers personally connecting with individual students.
