P.S. 247 COLLEGE PARTNERSHIP PROGRAM AND GEORGETOWN
Georgetown volunteers needed to join GU alum to support the P.S. 247 College Partnership Program.
The school's population is among the top academic performers in Brooklyn, despite the reality that ¾ of the families have incomes below the poverty level. This school has been named a National Blue Ribbon School one of 67 schools nationwide – and one of only two schools in NY State -- as a National Title I Distinguished School.
They are seeking 1-3 volunteers to visit the campus and conduct an activity with the Georgetown partner class for 2 visits during 2019-2020 school year with the hope of ongoing involvement as representatives of Georgetown.
