AfterSchool programming is expanding at Brook Avenue Elem for the 2022-23 school year! Here's a snapshot of opportunities students have had this past year with Communities In Schools.

Our Novice Teacher Academy with Academy for Urban School Leadership (AUSL) kicks off with a summer boot camp this week. Teachers are covering the fundamentals of classroom management, building relationships with students, co-workers, and families, and strategies for setting up classrooms.

Join us at a community welcome reception for G.W. Carver Middle School Principal Reggie Lewis! Thank you to the National Sorority of Phi Delta Kappa and Waco McLennan NAACP for hosting this event on Thurs. August 4 from 6-8pm on campus.

I’m so excited about our new cohort of teachers who participated in the New Teacher Academy! They are ready to make a difference in the lives of children. Transformation Waco Waco ISD
