Students and families faced immense challenges during the past two school years: A gaping digital divide cutting the most vulnerable off from virtual learning, underinvestments in critical school resources and aging infrastructure, and a lack of access to the kind of support needed for a successful school year.

That’s why Serve Your City/Ward 6 Mutual Aid is launching the Third Annual Back to School Bash to make sure that ALL of our DC students are able to have the resources and support that they need to thrive.

The Back to School Bash and Youth Festival is a day where our SYC/W6MA members, community partners, and community members all come together to celebrate the start of the new school year! At this event, students and their families have the opportunity to pick up a brand-new backpack filled with comprehensive school supplies and a digital device, learn about and sign-up for SYC/W6MA Tutoring and Youth Enrichment Programs, get assistance in filling out required paperwork for school and get required immunizations, including the COVID-19 vaccine, and much, much more.
