Mr. Roger’s ProjectBridging Education with Community Engagement"Imagining something may be the first step in making it happen, but it takes the real time and real efforts of real people to learn things, make things, turn thoughts into deeds or visions into inventions." The Brigantine Chamber of Commerce proudly presents The Mr. Roger’s Project, an innovative program designed to foster meaningful connections between the Brigantine Community School and the local business community. This initiative is inspired by the timeless wisdom of Mr. Rogers, who believed in the power of turning thoughts into actions. At the heart of The Mr. Roger’s Project lies a commitment to nurturing relationships between students and local businesses. Through this initiative, students are paired with esteemed Chamber business owners, exploring the intricacies of our local economy. Tasked with creating compelling social media content and captivating printed posters, students gain invaluable hands-on experience while contributing to the visibility and success of our local businesses. These collaborative efforts not only enrich students' learning experiences but also empower them to make tangible contributions to their community. Students will go on an eye-opening class field trip, offering them a firsthand glimpse into the operations of small businesses within their hometown. This immersive experience serves to deepen their understanding of entrepreneurship while creating lasting connections with our local economy. The Mr. Roger’s Project stands as a testament to the transformative power of education and community engagement. Together, we envision a future where the bonds between our schools and businesses flourish, enriching the lives of all who call Brigantine home. |
