[WardFive] Tonight's program, new executive board officers and summer hiatus

Tonight's program - Navigating the DC Education Landscape - was a HUGE success!  Thank you to our speakers and everyone that attended, your presence and engaging questions made the program very enriching.

Our meeting this evening was our last for the 2013-14 school year.  We will not meet in July and August but our meetings will resume in September on Tuesday, September 16th. We hope that you will join us then!

Lastly, CONGRATULATIONS to our new executive board officers for the 2014-16 school years:

Faith Gibson Hubbard - President 
Kashawna Watson - 1st Vice President (Membership/Parent Outreach) 
Mary Melchoir - 2nd Vice President (Policy/Advocacy)
Henri Makembe - 3rd Vice President (Community Outreach/Partnerships)
Vacant - Recording Secretary
Connell West - Treasurer
Herman 'Rip' Preston - Financial Secretary
Troy Watson - Public Relations Officer
Drew Hubbard - Parliamentarian

We thank our outgoing executive board officers for their service and look forward to their continued involvement and support.

Our organization will be on hiatus until September but we look forward to continuing to work hard for our community behind the scenes during the summer. It is our hope to launch our new website in July so please be on the lookout for that. If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to reach out to us.

Cheers to a great summer!
