i • <br />III. Development of a Black History Program in La Porte: <br />Charlotte and her staff have worked diligently with <br />the La Porte School District, Area Churches, Area <br />Civic Clubs and interested business'/individuals in <br />developing a comprehensive Black History during the <br />month of February each year. Through the <br />development of a most active committee, Charlotte <br />affords La Porte a month of activity involving: <br />Gospel/Spiritual Program at Sylvan Beach, a Black <br />History Celebration Program at La Porte High School <br />and numerous community seminars and classes dealing <br />with the Black impact on our society. I state with <br />confidence that La Porte stands alone in comparison <br />to area municipalities, including Houston, in the <br />quality and quantity of Black History Month <br />observances through programs/activities. <br />In closing I feel compelled to state, even through it is quite <br />obvious, that these accomplishments Charlotte has achieved were not <br />made by working an ordinary work week. Charlotte puts in many <br />extra hours and works quite a few weekends each year. Her <br />dedication to and strong sense of community are assets that a <br />supervisor can not teach or even require of an employee. La Porte <br />is most fortunate to have employees such as Charlotte, and it is <br />without hesitation that I recommend Charlotte as the City of <br />La Porte's Employee of the Quarter (October, November and December <br />1990) <br />cc: Stan Sherwood, Director of Parks and Recreation <br />
