Brotherhood Kick-Off
Brotherhood Gathering
Brotherhood Annual Chat n’ Chew Breakfast
Mrachek Middle School Brotherhood (MMSB) had its 2014-2015 kick off on
Tuesday November 4, 2015 in the Commons. Over 100 members and their families
attended. MMSB participated in several engaging opportunities: The Boys to Men
Workshop and Conference at the CU Health Science Center and the RACE: Are We So
different? exhibit at the History of Colorado Center. In addition, community stakeholders
visited with our young men and provided conversation and dialogue that offered words of
wisdom and hope for our young men. Also, a prominent area basketball coach and
director spoke to our members. “Coach Hobson” provided excellent advice and skills for
making future decisions. MMSB was also honored to have lunch with one of the nation’s
successful African-American Professors. Dr. Yemi Stembridge, from New York
University, spent the day with the young men discussing goal setting and the importance
of education.
Future field trips and community events are being planned for the spring. Parent and
community participation are welcomed. Upon returning from Spring Break, we
anticipate celebrating Fun Saturday and participating in the Mrachek Cultural and
Learning Fair. Dates for the events will soon follow.
Our young men have been faithful and committed to participating in this year’s activities.
Also, MMSB men are doing an outstanding job with their grades and work effort. MMSB
is committed to instilling a sense of leadership and community purpose in all of its
members. Our sponsors are committed to supporting the mission to empower young men
of color by maintaining good grades, valor, and respect and to reach their fullest
potential. We are excited beyond measure about the improvement in our young men’s
behavior, academic and social growth.
