Welcome Back!
Hi Y'all,
We hope you've had a wonderful summer and are settling in to the new semester easily enough! Classes are getting rolling and SFER is gearing up for a fantastic and successful year. If this is your first year with us, Welcome! We are thrilled to have you. For all of our returners it's great to have you back and can't wait to see what we accomplish this year.
Coming down the line we have several important events and dates...
1. Sunday, September 8th: Deadline for letters to the Congressional Black Caucus. Please join us in sharing student voices with Congress about educational struggles facing today's students and ask them to support efforts that will facilitate change! Letters can be sent to GeauxSFER@gmail.com to be collated and delivered to Washington D.C. Please contact us at our email (sfertulane@gmail.com) with any questions about this initiative, we'd love to work with you on this.
2. Tuesday September 10th: Our very first meeting of the semester! Join us at 7:30pm in Hebert room 212 for a screening of the film Rebirth: New Orleans and general introductions.
3. September 17th and 25th: Join us for the OPSB (Orleans Parish School Board) and RSD (Recovery School District) board meetings and receive a free shirt. Make sure that those in power of education are aware that they are being carefully watched.
Mark your calendars with as many of these as possible, looking forward to seeing many of you there!
As always please contact us at sfertulane@gmail.com with any questions, concerns, or comments. Send those letters in and we'll see you on Tuesday!
