Support the Early College Academy (ECA) Basketball Team – December 8th from 5-9 PM!

Three Ohio State University College of Social Work students (Luke Wagner, Tyler Folds, and Alison Humphreys) are currently doing their field placements at Early College Academy
(ECA). The interns aim to improve school climate by building opportunities for youth to participate in clubs, social support groups, and sport. On December 8th, the interns have organized a fundraiser for the school and let’s be real--giving back has never tasted better! Every person who dines at Chipotle on N. High Street between the hours of 5–9 pm on December 8th can support the ECA basketball team buy new jerseys. In the past, participation on the ECA basketball team has helped to improve school climate (higher rates of engagement in school activities) and improved attendance by approximately 40% among Black males.
