Needs Assessment
In our initial assessment of what Communities In Schools would be able to bring to the community of and surrounding Butzel Elementary/Middle School there was a high assessed desire for parenting skills/homework help workshops for parents and families of Butzel students.
Detroit Parent Network
Detroit Parent Network
We collaborated with Detroit Parent Network to administer the workshops and enroll the parents in their program so they could continue to receive services free of charge to the parents for the next year.
Flyers were sent and Incentives were purchased…
The workshops were scheduled and the parents came to learn…
Yolanda had some tricks up her sleeve!
The parents enjoyed food and each others’ company…
The tools shared were very useful…
And even the kids got to enjoy!
THANK YOU!
To Michigan Campus Compact and the Carter Academic Service Entrepreneur Grant for allowing us this opportunity to include parents in learning activities at Butzel School!
Another Thank You to Communities In Schools for their support, Yolanda Eddins from DPN for her very hard work, DPN for the free child care services, Reyonna Orr for her continuous guidance, and Principal Wilson for providing dinner for our second workshop participants ☻
