Junior Achievement Day

Event Chair: Soror Tyra Good
Event Co-Chair: Soror Sharon Williams
Program Committee Chair: Soror Donna Pollard

Junior Achievement Day at The Urban League of Pittsburgh Charter School was a successful and worthwhile event. The students and teachers, K-5, were very receptive an engaged in the activities presented in all of the grade levels. Our presenters were magnificent and relaxed in facilitating the activities and received a unanimous response to return next year. Many thinks to all the presenters and their efforts to make a difference in our school communities and to Soror Gail Edwards, school CEO/Administrator, for spreading the pink and green carpet to us.
