Students from R. L. Turner’s Math, Engineering, Technology and Science Academy (METSA) handed out care packages and played classical music at CitySquare in Dallas, TX on Sunday, April 30th. CitySquare is a nonprofit organization that provides food, shelter, medical care, and job skill training for Dallas homeless community members, which they call “neighbors”. The neighbors and CitySquare volunteers said the music and conversations with the students brought culture and joy to their gathering.
On May 6th, METSA students and teachers assisted the Dallas Area Habitat for Humanity by picking up trash, and raising awareness and creating support for positive change in our community.
