Bowie Community Service Fair

Our Community Service & Volunteer Fair took on a new format this year...it was held during Advisory and was held concurrently with our Career Days program. The fair took place on January 23rd and January 30th and was mandatory for all students. The Service Fair featured many organizations in Austin and enabled students to learn about various volunteer opportunities.  Many thanks to Karla Cantu for heading up this effort!
