Booker T. prepares for Ancestors' Night
The children, staff and volunteers at Booker T. are preparing to celebrate Black History Month by spending some extra time learning about the extraordinary accomplishments of African-Americans. Look for our Ancestors' Night ceremony on February 26th, 2010 to be a memorable one!
Our Mission
The Booker T. Washington Learning Center’s mission is to break the cycle of inadequate education, poverty and despair, which pervades East Harlem, while working to maintain a viable and hopeful community.

What People Are Saying...

The best part of being at Booker T. is that all of the staff and children are welcoming when you come. You get help with your homework and home issues. Booker T. has been like a home for me for the last 8 years. I have learned about myself and others. I've learned how to make choices for myself and to think independently. Also, I've learned to express myself through acting, drawing and singing. I realize who and what I can be.
