Darnell L. Moore, the Brooklyn-based motivational speaker, educator, journalist and LGBTQ advocate, will be the speaker for the 2016 graduating class of Brooklyn Community Services’ Brooklyn High School for Leadership & Community Service (BHSLCS) on June 24 at St. Joseph’s College, 245 Clinton Ave. in Brooklyn.
BHSLCS, located in Clinton Hill, is a joint venture between the New York City Department of Education and Brooklyn Community Services. It’s a transfer high school for over-age, under-credited youth ages 16-21, who have either fallen behind in high school or dropped out.
BHSLCS offers challenging, personalized education that empowers young people to be fully participating community members, leaders and lifelong learners. Students earn a Regents diploma and are encouraged to transition to either college or a career.
