Let’s send our students back to school in style! On Saturday, August 9, 2025, from 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM, join us for the Back 2 School “Boogie” Parade, a high-energy celebration of school spirit and community pride. The parade will begin at Washington High School and make its way to the Charles Black Community Center, bringing together students, families, schools, local businesses, and community leaders for a morning of movement, music, and fun.
Everyone’s invited! March, dance, roll, or walk your way through the route—showcasing creativity, collaboration, and the heartbeat of our neighborhoods.
Stay After for the Fun Fair!
Enjoy games, live music, entertainment for all ages, and a variety of delicious food trucks.
