The decision to spare the two schools from proposed closures comes after nearly a month of intense community pushback against the district’s sweeping facilities plan.
The Kensington Tigers, representing four Kensington area high schools, opened the season with 13 straight wins while building a new team culture and boosting school morale.
We are so excited to launch our second art contest, with the theme: “My vision for Kensington.”
We saw this contest as an opportunity for community members to communicate their neighborhood vision to those in or running for elected office at City Hall.
This art contest is being organized by Kensington Voice, a community hub and newsroom serving Fairhill, Harrowgate, Kensington, and Norris Square.
Contest Theme
The contest theme is “My vision for Kensington.”
