Center for Innovation in Urban Education (CIUE) Renewing Community Engagement in Urban Schools: A Panel Thursday, Oct. 29 Barclay Elementary/Middle School In the 1970s and 1980s, the Barclay Brent Education Corporation, an engaged, pro-active, parent-led group, mobilized and became involved to help improve their local schools. This forum, the first in a series of events designed to promote enhanced community engagement in urban education, will consider how a similar organization might engage current and prospective parents today, particularly those at Barclay and Margaret Brent Elementary/Middle Schools. The panel will include an original Barclay Brent Education Corporation member, a current parent, a current teacher, a prospective parent, and a representative from the School of Education at Loyola University Maryland. This event is the first in a series of talks, panel discussions, readings and other programs sponsored by Loyola’s Center for Innovation in Urban Education (CIUE) and designed to prompt dialogue on education in Baltimore, as well as to enhance relationships and promote deeper understanding of the need for a new vision of urban education. Co-sponsored by Loyola University Maryland’s CIUE and the Greater Homewood Community Corporation. For more information or to reserve a seat, call 410-617-5094.
