Dear BUSD Community,

BUSD and our African American Success Framework (AASF) partners invite you and your students in grades 3-8 to Longfellow Middle School this Saturday to participate in fun activities and parent workshops at this special Black to School event.

This graphic is an advertisment for an event called Back to School. It includes four images of children, the first is children sitting in a circle on the grass, the second is several children standing outside in front of a building that is likely a school, the next is of a group of chidlren in a school, they are circling a table that has painting supplies on it and some appear to be dipping a paint brush in paint, and the fourth image is of two children looking at some images on a table. The text in this graphic says: We are brilliant, resilient, and strong! It's time to get back-to-school.
