The Learning Movement

❤️ “Be the change you wish to see in the world!”

If you are interested in volunteering at the Boys and Girls Club located in the Dr Velma Williams West Side Community Center and are an up to date Dividend, let me know. The director, Travis Knight, said volunteers could work with children to help with reading around 11:00-lunchtime or between 1:00-3:00. Message me if you are interested .

This garden is such an amazing opportunity for these children to learn about growing food, food independence, and even a little science. These two local community heroes do so much for our community, they are appreciated!

We had such a great time at the Ladies 327, Inc. Kids Zone at the Rhythm & Brews BBQ Fest!

Scholarships are a great way to help lessen the financial burden of getting a degree. Make sure your student(s) apply if eligible!

We were happy to provide the Sanford Fire Department with children’s book bundles for them to distribute on calls for service. The Pete The Cat Firefighter Pete books will be perfect for our hometown heroes! 🚒

Our Ladies 327, Inc. team enjoyed being part of the Sanford Fire Department and Sanford Police Department family day where we delivered the books. 📚❤️

The Giving Tree is a beautiful tradition at SCPS. Each year, our community comes alongside our students who would not have gifts under the tree without their support. Unfortunately, the need is higher than in years past. We will need our community's support in a big way. If you'd like to know how you can bring some holiday magic to a child in need right here in our district, please visit https://www.scps.k12.fl.us/cms/One.aspx?portalId=1854109&pageId=2057814 You can also shop via our Amazon Wish List here and have all gifts delivered directly to our main building. https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/3HP4HC3LBF0A8/ref=hz_ls_biz_ex

Parents are we all ready for a safe night of trick-or-treat?!

It's Halloween and we want to make sure that you are Trick or Treating safely.

We all love candy; however, it is important that you inspect each piece before eating it. Don't eat it if the wrapper is opened or punctured, the treat is discolored, or if it is a homemade goodie from somebody that you do not know.

When in doubt, throw it out!

Pearlie Mae Ford Community Service Club of Sanford, Inc. blessed us with a donation of amazing books. The thoughtful ladies of PMF provided us a diverse collection of titles representing children across a variety of cultures in our community. The Learning Movement relies on community donations for our book supply. We are always grateful when we get donations such as this one that help us provide children with books featuring people who represent their own families and cultures.
