More progress at Daniel Webster

Efforts to revitalize Daniel Webster ES took another step forward recently, as reported in this Chron article: Volunteers give S.F. school a fresh look

Enrollment is on the decline and budgets are tight, but a Potrero Hill elementary school received a major face-lift Saturday, as more than 100 volunteers painted its walls and planted flowers in hopes of wooing new students and their parents.

"A fresh coat of paint can do wonders for the community," said Stacey Bartlett with the Potrero Residents Education Fund, a group that supports Daniel Webster Elementary School. "The school district does not have money for the improvement, and it takes the community to help them out."

The Rebuilding Together project at Webster that the article highlights is not the only news at Webster. Their blog chronicles the continuing efforts to get the new preschool up and running. I've been watching this story develop for years now. Nice to see the hard work of volunteers start to bear fruit. Congratulations and good luck to all involved
