Last Update: January 20th, 2012
The Detroit College Promise is excited to launch the Detroit Education Network. The purpose is to create networking opportunities for those interested in promoting K-12 public education in Detroit.
They plan to hold quarterly lunch meetings for one hour, to briefly provide an opportunity to learn what other organizations are doing. They will have 3-4 organizations give a 5 minute talk about what they are doing, and what they are looking for in a collaborative partner. The emphasis is on K-12 education, because good public schools are an important factor when people decide whether to live in a community, and recognizing that having a strong Detroit is important to the future of the region.
With the talent and commitment of so many in the region, they can once again make Detroit a leader in public education, and an inspiration to other challenged school systems. If you are an organization, and would like to get involved, call the Detroit College Promise at 248-646-3269 or email them at DetroitCollegePromise@gmail.com. The first meeting is scheduled for January 24 at noon. The next meeting is tentatively scheduled for April.
