Today’s Back to School Lunch benefiting the San Francisco Education Fund (newly-merged with the San Francisco School Volunteers) was uplifting, honoring Gateway High School (school of the year), Hanson Bridgett LLP (partner of the year for work with newcomer students at Everett Middle School), and George Kelly, volunteer of the year for his many years of service at Harvey Milk Civil Rights Academy.
The jazz band from School of the Arts and Taiko drummers from the Academy of Arts and Sciences kicked off the festivities. At the end, a special treat: a rendition of Cat Stevens’ “If You Want to Sing Out, Sing Out,” sung by the (adorable) Fabulous Fairmount Falcons Chorus (comprised of students at Fairmount Elementary School):
