ICA RELEASES FIFTH CITY VIDEO TO COMMEMORATE FIFTH CITY PRESCHOOL 50TH ANNIVERSARY

7/23/2014

 
In 1962, ICA established operations in Fifth City in Chicago's East Garfield Park community on the West Side of Chicago.

​Two years later, Fifth City community members established the 
Fifth City Child Development Institute. This Saturday, July 26th, 9am-3pm, Fifth City Preschool will celebrate 50 years of providing early education to neighborhood children.
Ruth Carter (1936-2013), the dynamic, former director of the Fifth City Preschool, will be honored as Trumbull Ave., near Fifth Ave., will be named honorary Ruth Carter Lane.  

"Fifth City Preschool has thrived throughout the years due to a caring, committed staff and a great curriculum," said Pam Bergdall, a resident of the ICA GreenRise who volunteered at a Rebuilding Together work day at Fifth City Preschool on July 10th.​

To commemorate this exciting milestone, the ICA has released, for the first time ever online, the Fifth City: A Decisional City video.  The ICA congratulates Fifth City Preschool for 50 years of outstanding community education.
