CARES Unites Residents at Oktoberfest

BerwynCARES participated in this year's Depot District Oktoberfest with a membership booth and a craft table for young children to enjoy. There are many parents of young children who are eager to learn about the public school system in Berwyn and we were so glad to share information about our work.

Our mission of uniting residents interested in renewing and sustaining an enthusiasm, interest, and passion for the education system in Berwyn includes a balance of two main focuses:

1. An activism role that includes reporting on the major decisions made by our school boards and acting as a watchdog organization on behalf of taxpayers.

2. A supportive, fundraising role that provides grants to teachers and scholarships to deserving students.

If you are interested (and I hope you ARE!!) in joining our efforts on either or both of the above roles, please consider joining Berwyn CARES. Thanks to all who came out yesterday to learn more about BerwynCARES. It really was a great day!
