At our September 5 meeting, the Rotary Club of Atlanta West End proudly welcomed new member Bee Long, introduced by President Victoria Seals, and heard an insightful presentation from Aretta Baldon D2, Atlanta Board of Education District 2 representative and AWER honorary member.

Aretta shared the challenges and opportunities facing Atlanta Public Schools, including enrollment shifts, funding, and the vital role of parental involvement. Her passion for equity and commitment to students reflect the very best of “Service Above Self.”

AWER is a dynamic, future-facing club. Alongside those gathered in person, a good number of our busy members joined via Zoom and participated in the vibrant discussion.

We are excited to grow with Bee and grateful to learn with Aretta. Visitors are always welcome at AWER. Join us for fellowship, service, and conversations that matter.
