BBBSOS Honors Dennis Littky at "The Big Night Out - An Evening in Paris"

Join BBBSOS at the Big Night Out - An evening in Paris, June 14th 2014 as we honor Dennis Littky.  Dennis is the co-founder and co-director of The Met School, Big Picture Learning and College Unbound. He is nationally known for his extensive work in secondary education in urban, suburban, and rural settings, spanning over 40 years. As an educator, Dennis has a reputation for working up against the edge of convention and out of the box, turning tradition on its head and delivering concrete results. From 2000-2010 The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation gave Big Picture Learning 25 million dollars to replicate The Met School nationally and internationally. Presently, Dennis’s focus has been to expand the Big Picture Learning design to include a program, College Unbound, for adults, that allows them to earn a Bachelors Degree while working full time. Join us June 14th 2014 at the Hyatt Regency Newport Hotel & Spa for The Big Night Out, An Evening in Paris to help honor all the great work Dennis has done! www.thebignightout.org
