NOLA Summer 2012 - Welcome to Partnerships In Education

Teams working with NOLA Schools this summer 2012 are members of the new non-profit, Partnerships in Education.  Founded in March, the organization's mission is to provide service and goods to schools in need.  Our teams will be assisting the opening of Arthur Ashe Elementary School with its move to its new LEED's  certified school building in Gentilly, and building a library and curriculum resources for Harriet Tubman Elementary School in Algiers.   We are excited to returning to these schools which we helped to reopen on previous trips.  32 volunteers continue the great work we have provided the schools in New Orleans since 2007.  Congratulations to our outstanding team members.   We look forward to reading your reflections in our service trip BLOG.
