Last week, we celebrated National Coordinators Appreciation Week. We asked principals, school staff, partners, and community members to share their thanks and appreciation for Philly’s Community School Coordinators. Here are a few reasons why they think #CoordinatorsRock.
1. They are great partners
On behalf of @CityYearPhilly I want to thank Will R. & Beth D. for being such amazing #CommunitySchoolsPHL partners! #CoordinatorsRock
