CPM Parent Meetings Strengthen Family Engagement
UPLIFT Academy brought together CPM families, students, staff, and partner locations for a meaningful parent meeting focused on communication, collaboration, and student success. With families participating both in person and through Zoom, the meeting created an opportunity to connect across locations and strengthen our shared commitment to supporting students on their path to college.
Thanksgiving Food Distribution Brings Warmth to Families
In the spirit of gratitude and community, UPLIFT Academy organized a Thanksgiving Food Distribution event at two of our partner locations—Alaaka Association and Masjid Fallahee. With the help of local administration teams, we identified families in need and ensured that support reached those who could benefit most during the holiday season.
