Greetings!
Liberation
Through Education had an enjoyable and productive summer, which
gave way to an outstanding start to the 2010-2011 School Year, and
an out-of-this-world special event!
On August 2nd, a large group of LTE supporters gathered at Zephyrs
Stadium to watch the New Orleans Zephyrs take on the Albuquerque
Isotopes.
In mid-August, LTE kids started a brand new school year, and we
began our third year of programming to help them achieve a
harmonious social-academic balance.
On September 2nd, we hosted a patron party in recognition and
celebration of our supporters.
On September 11th, we enjoyed "Une Nuit de Magie", and WOW... was
it something magical!
Many dates. Many events. And many more to
come!Liberation Through Education has
much and many to be thankful for.
