Mid-Year Highlights
At a recent principal's meeting, a few highlights from each school were shared. Here's a summary from that session:
On an ordinary school afternoon, something extraordinary is happening across our nine Community Schools.
United Way of Asheville and Buncombe County is excited to be the premier charity partner for iDaph Events Asheville Marathon & Half on Saturday, March 21st.
We're looking for volunteers to help run the show. Cool part? For each volunteer we recruit who fulfills their shift, UWABC will receive $25 per volunteer hour from iDaph Events!
Come and be a part of the fun.
