GOOD MORNING EVERYBODY!!!

I hope everybody is having an excellent morning so far! I just want everybody to know that America SCORES LA, has the opportunity to select two (2) Poet-Athletes (1 boy and 1 girl) to represent our hometown in this nationwide event. Tryouts will be held next week at each school. We encourage every active America SCORES student to participate in this year’s tryouts! Students will recite their poems in front of the SCORES staff at their very own school. Tryouts for the National Poetry SLAM will be on the following days:

Charnock Road Elementary

3:00pm
Room 29

Braddock Drive Elementary

With that said we will be having our local Poetry SLAM on April 2nd. The Poetry SLAM will consist of all of our students and coaches reciting poems they wrote themselves or with others. I will keep everybody updated on the venue and time of the event. Hope everybody has a great day and I look forward to seeing many of you at our Poetry slam.

Feels Good To Be Back

     Good Morning/Afternoon everybody! I hope everybody's holidays went well and received some well deserved rest. We all here at the office wish everybody a HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

     As our students return to class today we are eager to reunite with them and see how things are going. I, personally, can't wait to hear about how they spent their winter break. 

     Moving forward with some interesting dates, America SCORES LA will return to Braddock Elementary and Palms Elementary on March 19th, 2014, the date for the Poetry SLAM still isn't 100% fixed but seems to be within last weeks of march and the beginning weeks of April, and the JAMBOREE as well hasn't been set in stone but I will keep you all updated once I figure out the dates.

     I never thought I'd be this excited to go back to school in my life!

     Alright, I have to return to my duties here in the office or else Armond will start nagging at me. I wish everybody a great day and hope nothing but the best for you and your loved ones.
