RE:
Response to your challenge to D.C. law firms to partner with a D.C. public school
Before I left, I wanted to be sure you knew that D.C. law firms are responding to your call for
them to partner with D.C. public schools. The Washington Lawyers' Committee says that at
least 12 new law firm-school partnerships are in the process of forming, and that at least 8 other
firms have expressed interest in forming one. The Lawyers' Committee attributes this
outpouring directly to your visit to Cleveland Elementary School and your subsequent letter to
the managing partners of D.C. law firms in February. Prior to your visit to Cleveland, Iris Toyer,
who facilitates partnerships at the Lawyers' Committee and participated in the panel discussion
at Cleveland, had been having a tough time enlisting the participation of additional law firms.
Iris is encouraging firms to partner with schools in NE and SE and with schools that do not have
any partners, and is pleased that some are doing so. Hogan and Hartson is establishing a
partnership with Spingarn High School in NE, and King & Spalding is establishing a partnership
with Martin Luther King Elementary School in SE. Arnold and Porter is establishing a
partnership at Garrison, the NW elementary school you visited with the President in February.
Attached are a letter you just received from Ted Small, the lawyer from Holland & Knight who
moderated the panel discussion at Cleveland, and thank you notes from second graders at
Cleveland. Ted says your letter to the law firms has won the managing partners' attention, and
that the discussion has moved from whether to partner with a school, to how to do it. Over 30
firms attended a panel discussion last week sponsored by the Washington Lawyers' Committee
to discuss how to partner with a school. General Becton was planning to attend, but had to
attend a last minute City Council hearing instead.
The Washington Lawyers' Committee has invited you to speak at their annual awards luncheon
on June 10th. The program will feature a tribute to law firms that have partnered with D.C.
public schools, and the Lawyers' Committee believes your participation at the luncheon would
help them secure commitments from additional law firms and help energize the firms.
I could not be more pleased with the response to your challenge. Based on the experience of the
existing partnerships, I believe these additional partnerships have the potential to make a real
difference in the lives of thousands of District children and in their communities. Bravo!

Re: Thank-you for your visit to Cleveland Tri-
School Learning Academy, Lower Campus B and
Shaw Neighborhood.
Dear Mrs. Clinton:
I am writing to thank you for visiting with us at Cleveland
Tri-School Learning Academy, Lower Campus B on February 14, 1997.
After weeks of attempting unsuccessfully to find just the right
words, I delegated the task of expressing our appreciation to some
young writers who are hardly ever at a loss for words. The
attached envelope contains some very special thank you notes from
the second graders who you met during the visit.
Expanding on their notes only briefly, we thank you for
providing some much needed recognition for the teachers and
administrators of Cleveland school, particularly Principal Annie
Mair, who have worked hard for many years to develop a challenging
learning environment for Shaw children. In conversations with
teachers and administrators, I have noticed a renewed sense of
dedication about their plans for the coming year. Several
Cleveland parents have also commented how proud they were to watch
television and read newspaper articles where their school was cited
as a example of what is working well in the District of Columbia.
Even our other non-profit clients in Shaw have interpreted your
visit as a sign that their community building efforts are working
and getting noticed in "high" places. In short, you have
encouraged an entire community to continue working to rebuild Shaw
into a place where it is safe for kids to learn and play.
In my role as chair of the ABA's Public Schools Committee, I
also greatly appreciate your assistance in stimulating interest and
issuing a challenge to other D.C. law firms to develop similar
school partnerships. In the weeks following your visit to
Cleveland, I have participated in two panel discussions on this

topic, one sponsored by the D.C. Bar and the other sponsored by the
Washington Lawyers' Committee. Both were well-attended by lawyers
as well as other professional organizations interested in obtaining
some practical information about how they might meet your school
partnership challenge. The project director at the Washington
Lawyers' Committee, Iris Toyer, has already obtained commitments
from several of these law firms that they will begin school
partnerships. With this renewed interest and commitment, D.C. law
firms have an opportunity to lead a movement for increasing lawyer
involvement in public schools across the nation.
Lastly, on behalf of Holland & Knight's Community Services
Team and the entire firm, we thank you for your kind words of
support for our partnership with Cleveland school and our pro bono
commitment to the larger Shaw community. We are working very hard
to live up to your high praise by strengthening our relationships
with Cleveland school and other Shaw groups. We hope to develop
a model for law firms to combine their pro bono and community
services commitments into partnerships with other neighborhoods.
Their involvement would become one part of an integrated series of
solutions to the complex problems of America's inner cities.
I very much enjoyed meeting you and also working with your
assistant, Pauline Abernathy who worked so hard in the background
to make this very inspiring event possible. As the children have
so eloquently written in the enclosed thank-you cards, we look
forward to you visiting again very soon.
Very truly yours,
HOLLAND & KNIGHT LLP
