2026 South Louisiana Children's Cluster

Children’s Cluster provides a space for our youngest children to develop through structured, age-appropriate activities that foster community, unity and a sense of belonging among children and their families. The Two Time Five Star Notable New Orleans Chapter is excited to welcome you to the 2026 South Louisiana COE Children’s Cluster. We invite you to take part in a powerful all-day program celebrating the rich legacy and lasting impact of African Americans throughout history. Through music, art, storytelling, STEM activities, and hands-on workshops, our Jacks and Jills will learn about the achievements of African American pioneers and the principles they stood for—courage, innovation, resilience, and community. As we honor those who came before us, we plant seeds in our children encouraging them to dream big, think boldly, and understand that they, too, can become history makers. Greatness is not only inherited, it's cultivated. It all begins at the venue hosting us, Fannie C. Williams School is named after an African American who was a pioneer in the education of African American children in the South while also remaining committed to community development.
