Educational Program with Greektown Middle Schools

Educational Program with Greektown Middle Schools
Date: May 2011
Location: Johns Hopkins University Campus

In 2009, in our effort to connect with the Greek Community in Baltimore, and most importantly enhance the efforts of Greektwon CDC to create future Greek leaders, we started a special leadership program at Johns Hopkins in cooperation with Mr. Jason Filippou: Students from the middle school in Greektown were given the opportunity to receive a guided tour around the Homewood campus and attend a leadership lecture from Mr. Aris Melissaratos.

In May 2011, Greek students from the John Ruhrah Middle School in Greektown again attended a guided tour of JHU. HSA Members Timothy Youtsos, Laura Livaditis and past president Alexandros Afthinos talked to the students about goals, college application requirements, as well as grants available to Baltimore City High School students.
