Empowering Youth through Service-Learning | LEARN Charters Elementary School Team 06/18/2024

During the Spring Service-Learning Season, Poet-Athletes work with their coach to identify an issue they feel passionately about. Poet-Athletes then work to address this issue within their community.

At LEARN Charter School Network , our Elementary Team created a powerful PSA to educate the public on all forms of abuse, spreading awareness and understanding. Meanwhile, our LEARN Middle School Team focused on child abuse, highlighting crucial resources to help those in need. Together, theyโ€™re making a difference and empowering our community with knowledge and support. ๐Ÿ’ชโค๏ธ
