The NAACP Back to School/Stay in School program was launched in 1984 as an effort to inspire youth to develop academic skills, and to achieve perfect attendance records. This event will support this effort, and provide students with school supplies that may assist them in accomplishing these goals. Educational activities and entertainment will be provided as well.

SUPPLIES ARE LIMITED! Pre-registration is limited to the first 75 registered K-12 students. Free school supplies will be reserved for the first 75 registered K-12 students only, and will be distributed to registered K-12 students presenting vouchers during the first hour of this event. Should any school supplies remain afterwards, supplies will be distributed to the remaining K-12 students on a first come first served basis, and while supplies last.

Sponsorship, vendor, and volunteer opportunities are available. Donations are welcome.
