Frank Elementary School - Family Resource Center

Jan 27 - Normalicia Blanco, Parent Liaison for the Family Resource Center at Frank Elementary School in Guadalupe, gave us a passionate description of the Resource Center and its various activities/responsibilities. Normalicia began as a volunteer with the school for 3 years and then was hired full time to run the Center. She explained that over 98% of the students at this school are below the poverty level and their families are in much need of assistance of all kinds. The Resource Center provides clothing, and meals, as well as teaching fitness, and English classes for parents. Normalicia spends considerable time organizing fund raisers and is constantly looking for assistance with the program.
