This
year will mark the 15th year that Taylor has held its Family & Community
Expo (formerly known as the Literacy Luau). It is scheduled for Thursday,
March 30. It will be held at Kennedy High School.
The
doors are open at 5:30 p.m. and it runs until 7:30.
The Enrichment Fair has changed over the years but the goal is the
same:
The schools want to connect the families of the district
with resources available in the community. At
the same time they are taking the opportunity to showcase the
schools and the resources students have while they attend the district.
Each
of the Taylor School District schools is represented throughout the hallways at
our exhibit tables. Student music groups as well as student artists are
highlighted as well.
At
the Expo, each student will have the opportunity to visit the STEM Center,
where they will be able to make an Arts & Scraps original creation
and experiment building with Legos and Lego robotics.
Also,
students will receive a free non-fiction book to take home.
Parents
will be able to have a free health screening from Beaumont Health Care Systems
as well as connect with other community partners in Taylor.
The
event will have door prizes donated from local businesses: free movie tickets
to Cinemark, a bowling part at Skore Lanes and tickets to the Henry Ford Museum,
just to name a few.
Free
bagged dinners will be available to the first 400 people who attend.
