Silver Spring, MD (October 22, 2008) Real Maryland FC and the Children?s Miracle Fund teamed up together to put on a clinic for the students of Broad Acres Elementary School. The Children?s Miracle Fund is a new program that is aimed to foster partnerships with youth-related organizations that serve Latino youth and their preparation towards becoming a positive force in our community?s economic development.

This past Monday, after school, Real Maryland FC staff and players led a group of 50 fourth and fifth graders through a series of exercises with emphasis on the fundamentals of the game.

?It was great to be on the field with these kids,? said General Manager David Noyes. ?They were very attentive and showed tremendous enthusiasm when we gave them an exercise to do.?

Broad Acres currently serves about 450 students enrolled from Head-start through fifth grade. These students come to Broad Acres from all over the world ? over 30 countries ? and speak nearly as many languages. Student services include special education inclusion classes, a METS class (serving students with interrupted or no prior school experience), various academic supports (reading, ESOL, mathematics, and science), and Linkages to Learning.
