This event begins at 6pm. The "Parent Empowerment Program" is designed to provide community connections, information and encouragement for parents seeking to be more involved with their children's daily learning process.

While the parents are involved in this informational program, their children will be in a Stories, Songs, and Drama workshop, led by Oba, assisted by local musicians and Freedom School volunteers. The workshop will reinforce Tuesday's themes of Oba's Multicultural tales and the song "I Love My People", and will culminate in a half hour performance that students will present to their parents and community at 7pm that evening.
