Rock The School Bells 2016
5 Elements was honored to bring our founding middle school cohort to Rock the School Bells 2016, which unites communities from across the Bay Area to come together at an all-ages youth conference that blends workshops and performances that enhance students’ ability to think critically about current issues in the world as well as their communities. Students will learn about the historical and cultural aspects of Hip Hop and its effect on education.
Congratulations to the RTSB team for 10yrs of hip-hop education & youth empowerment!
