Although our team did an amazing job immediately shifting to remote instruction amidst the Covid-19 pandemic four years ago, no one knows better than our community the importance of seeing in person the people you work with and learn from day in and day out. With language learners in particular, the human connection can be so much stronger when accompanied by the multitude of gestures that can only be captured without a screen in between you and the people around you.
That's why this year's breakfast is so special. We know the energy that has ignited our center since we've had our team back in the office and we are so excited to share that with you at our breakfast - in person! So what will you be missing if you don't join us? Of course you will miss hearing how important Literacy Source is to students in their journey to create a better life for themselves and their family. However, this year you will also miss out on the incredible emcee skills of Star 101.5's Marina Rockinger, and our keynote speaker, Hamdi Mohamed, Director of OIRA (Seattle’s Office of Immigrant and Refugee Affairs), sharing her moving immigration story and why she believes so strongly in the work we do.
We'll also be showcasing some of our student projects at the breakfast so that you can get a better feel for what's happening in our classrooms (sneak peek below). We can't wait for you to celebrate with us the hard work our students are putting into building a better future for themselves, their families, and the community.
