Thank you for helping celebrate the Boston Teachers Union School, our wonderful neighbors, and all members of our community. We have worked together very hard to make an innovative idea, a shared leadership school model, come to life.

This year we celebrated our third year as a brand new school in Jamaica Plain. Every day Staff, Teachers, Families, Students, and Community Partners share in the responsibility of leading and shaping our school - on June 9th we came together to celebrate side by side!

We hope you will join us next time and in years to come!

Our 1st Annual BTU School Community Event was an amazing success because of YOU.

The BTU School Family Council would like to say THANK YOU to all members of our community for making the June 9th event memorable, successful, and a wonderful opportunity to grow closer to our neighbors. We felt your support every step of the way. We would like to acknowledge everyone that so graciously gave of their time, resources, contributions, and private donations to make this event a success for the BTU School and our community at large. We hope that even more of our neighbors will join in supporting us in years to come!

We would like to give a special thanks to our Co-Lead Teachers Berta Berriz and Betsy Drinan for creating a culture that appreciates and inspires shared leadership.
