Jennifer Balducci, President of the South Forest Drive (SOFO) business group and one of the leaders of these events, shared her vision for the future of their partnership with the community and their passion for supporting educators and students in an interview.
Mr. Rowland had a desire to connect with the students in a new way. He knew that the summer break was a time to present an opportunity to show his community he was truly invest and he started the AMS Grill Masters Club.
Starting early on a warm, summer Sunday August morning, you could hear the faint hum of car engines in the distance.
Anticipation was growing from the question of, “what kind of cars will we see today?!” When the cars began to arrive, it was such a beautiful sight.
From the way the cars sparkled in the early morning sun, to the sweet hint of freshly brewed coffee floating in the air, you knew that the day was going to be special.
The variety of cars on display was something to marvel at. There were Corvettes, Porsches, Mustangs, Jaguars, “American Muscle” cars, and foreign luxury gems on display. These cars were from several different eras and they were in pristine condition. There is a specific type of dedication a person has to have to collect and maintain such cars and those people were the ones who decided to take a few hours of their time to give back to their local community and our AACPS students. This was Cars & Coffee at Westfield Annapolis Mall, August 2023.
Westfield Annapolis put the word out to the community that they would be supporting AACPS by hosting a school supply donation drive and the community responded by filling a large crate with school supplies that will help students on their path to achieve greatness.
Ms. Morgan McCloud, Westfield Annapolis’ Marketing Director, was excited about the opportunity to partner with AACPS and she was pleased with the turn out of community support. In planning the event, Ms. McCloud made sure there were activities for individuals of all ages to enjoy at the event to include face painting, balloon art, food trucks, a dj playing lively music, and performances by a local […]
The Education Foundation of Anne Arundel County Public Schools would like for all of our AACPS teachers to start the school year with a welcoming “Back to School” breakfast, luncheon, or other celebration. While many of our schools are able to host events &/or provide gifts for their faculties to welcome them back to the new school year, some schools and their parent organizations have limited resources for these types of activities.
The Education Foundation of AACPS would like to provide five (5) schools with a Back to School Teacher Appreciation celebration. Each school would receive $1,000 in funding for August. If your school is interested in applying for this funding, please complete this request by Monday, August 7th and your application will be considered for this year. If selected, you will be notified by August 11th and we will be able to provide you with the funding by August 18th.
Thank you to you and everyone in your school community who supports the students of our county!
Thank you so much for listening to Laci and guiding her through her freshman year.
You are an unforgettable teacher!
