?? Inspiring Moments from the Power of Place 2024 Event! Our CEO and CIOO had the privilege of attending Power of Place 2024, a transformative gathering focused on how place-based initiatives can drive educational and community success. The event featured impactful messages from Maryland Governor Wes Moore, U.S. Secretary of Education Dr. Miguel Cardona, and a moving performance by the Harlem Children’s Zone Scholars. These leaders shared powerful insights on the role of community-driven solutions in creating equitable educational opportunities and fostering sustainable growth. Events like these reaffirm our commitment to empowering students and building stronger communities. #PowerOfPlace2024 #CommunityDevelopment #Education #Leadership #WesMoore #HarlemChildrensZone #MiguelCardona
