Gel community at Bronx Academy of Letters
Joan Sullivan is principal of Bronx Academy of Letters, one of the highest-performing public high schools in New York City. It's also just a few years old and located in the poorest Congressional district in America, in the South Bronx.
Joan spoke at Gel 2009 about her work there, and what she and her team have accomplished - and then finished by introducing two of her alumni, who each briefly told their inspiring story.
Now Allison Hemming and The Hired Guns (who hosted the Gel Challenge a couple months back), having connected with Joan via Gel, are running mock interviews at Bronx Letters on Monday, June 15... more info here. You can join them to meet the students and help them get ready for jobs and college.
Great to see the Gel community partnering up to do such good work!
