“The Best in the U.S.A”
After going through all the challenges of 2020, The Barack Obama Male Leadership Academy family has become much stronger and more united toward our mission and vision! As I have said before, if we hold ourselves accountable to our creed and mission, we will be the Best in the U.S.A.!
I receive requests from parents throughout the week requesting that their son attend in person classes. My response is always the same. As long as we have space, we are happy to have your son here with us! I can ensure that we will provide a safe environment where your son can be held accountable to the expectations that we have established for our virtual learning. Several teachers have started reaching out to individual parents suggesting that their son come to the school and work in the same room (Pod) with them.
Several Seniors have expressed an interest in returning to the campus. Their concern is that they would prefer to be together. I told them that I would be happy to provide an area where the Seniors can be together in several classrooms or one large room like one of the gyms or the auditorium.
For now, the students are still not changing classes. Although the brothers are not moving, their teachers will not hesitate to stop by and talk with them to make sure they are on task and completing their work.
In addition to a generous $20,000 donation from JCPenney, we also received gift cards from JCPenney. We will use a random number generator to select the names of 20 brothers during Lyceum next week.
Thank you all again for all of the support over these last 4 months! Let’s make it another great week at The Barack Obama Male Leadership Academy!
I am adding a link to the district calendar so that you can see all upcoming holidays and testing dates. https://www.dallasisd.org/calendars
