Author of "Kin" Visits GSS

In conjunction with Baldwin & Co. Coffee & Bookstore, GSS was honored to host acclaimed author Carole Boston Weatherford and her son Jefferey Boston Weatherford as they launched a tour for their latest book Kin: Rooted in Hope.  It is a powerful portrait of a Black family tree shaped by enslavement and freedom, rendered in searing poems and accompanied by stunning artwork.  The narrative unfolds through poems that span five centuries and are told in multiple voices, from various people and the land itself.  It is a passionate look at a Black family's personal history and their impact on America's founding history - written especially for young readers.  GSS is blessed to have been a part of the launch of this book and our 7th grade ELA truly enjoyed their presentation.

GSS Mission Statement
The Good Shepherd Nativity Mission School, Inc., seeks to help low-income, urban youth in order to realize their fullest potential as productive members of society by providing them with an extended-day, year-round, quality education, integrated with personal, moral and spiritual development, and continued guidance during the students' further education.

The Judeo-Christian values which have inspired the Nativity model include a respect for the dignity and potential of each person, a responsibility to assist the poor and those in need, a strong sense of community within the one family of God, and the obligation to promote a society characterized by social justice. In this Nativity model, students are enrolled without regard to race, color, religion, or ethnicity.
