We are grateful to Matt Fitzsimons from Covenant School of Bridgeport for organization this event through a generous partnership with Fordham Prep (Bronx, NY), who provided the host facilities for the tournament.
This event provided an afternoon of fun, friendly competition, and the opportunity to learn from each other through sports. We are thankful to the students, staff, community members, and guests who made this tournament a success. We hope to grow member participation in the years to come!
NativityMiguel Coalition executive director Danny Perez is excited to announce that Fidelity Investments, through its community foundation, is funding a financial literacy summer 2025 project with middle/high school campers and parents at the Ron Burton Training Village (Hubbardston, Mass.). The grant resulted from a partnership with Schooling for Hope founder Don Grace, Nativity Preparatory School of Boston head Brian Maher, and former executive director of the Massachusetts Council for Economic Education (and SfH partner) Scott Guild. The project will unfold on four weekends from June 28, through August 10, except the July 4th weekend.
RBTV and NMC share much common ground in terms of the populations they serve, their missions, and their impact on the lives of young people. The RBTV 2025 summer project will be a pilot for a three-year financial literacy program for middle school students, alums in high school, and their parents of the five NMC Massachusetts schools. NMC will share the three-year project results with all other schools in the NMC network.
Don Grace and Scott Guild are inviting interested candidates with middle/high school financial literacy teaching experience to submit applications to Don at schoolingforhope@gmail.com by April 7th. Click here to view the job posting with additional information.
The search for qualified candidates is now open. If you are interested, please apply.
