Teacher Appreciation Week at Johnson Elementary
In honor of Teacher Appreciation Week, Beta Alpha held its annual teacher appreciation breakfast for the staff at its adopted school, Johnson Elementary. Brothers of Beta Alpha understand that educators hold one of the most important and influential jobs in the world. We want to continue to show our support to teachers as they work hard to educate and make positive impacts in the lives of their students. A world without teachers is a world deprived of learning. Thank you, teachers, for all you do!
Brother, You’re On My Mind
Beta Alpha wrapped up it’s Reclamation and Retention weekend at the Westin Downtown Jackson. May is Mental Health Awareness Month and the brothers of Beta Alpha understand the importance of mental cleanliness. The chapter held a “Brother, You’re On My Mind”program. The purpose of the event is to continue educating our brothers about mental health disparities as well as to give the brothers a safe space to share and deal with their emotional concerns.
