Our County Overview dashboard features a wealth of information about our K-12 student population and we've just updated it to include 2022-23 school year enrollment data. Visit the dashboard here and click on the "Our Student Population" tab to see the updated data. Some pro tips on the dashboard; click on the name of any district or school from the list, or the dots on the map to filter the demographic's data. To see trends in the data for any population, you can hover over the bar chart to see how the population has changed over the last five school years.

This month BOF is partnering with Chase Bank’s Community Manager Annette Washington, to host a homebuying workshop in both the Wilson Heights and Lincoln Park neighborhoods. Our goal is to equip families with the tools to pursue home ownership. Dinner and childcare will be provided so if you or anyone you know is interested, please register using the links on the flyer and share this info with your networks.
 
We know that it takes a village to raise a child! So, join us in the work of convening the village.
 
Wilson Heights: April 26th:  6pm-7:30pm @ Wilson Elementary School (use Door #8)
 
Lincoln Park/Uptown: April 27th:  6pm-7:30pm @ Brass Community School (main entrance)
