We are thrilled to announce that Shkolla Shqipe Naples will officially open its doors on January 17th, 2025! This date holds special significance for Albanians everywhere, as it commemorates the passing of our national hero, Gjergj Kastrioti Skenderbeu, who dedicated his life to preserving our culture and identity. Launching our school on this symbolic day reflects our mission to honor and continue his legacy by passing down our language, traditions, and heritage to future generations.
This exciting new initiative offers a space for Albanian-American families to come together for cultural bonding, language learning, and traditional dance classes. Classes will take place every Friday from 6:00 to 9:00 PM at North Naples Middle School and are completely free for all students aged 5 to 16.
Our program will feature:
• 1 hour of language instruction to strengthen our connection to the Albanian language and heritage.
• 1 hour of community building activities to create lifelong friendships and a sense of belonging.
• 1 hour of traditional Albanian dance practice, with students performing at community events throughout the year.
As we prepare for this early launch, we kindly ask for your patience and support to perfect our program. Shkolla Shqipe Naples is a community effort, and we need your help!
• Financial support for supplies, uniforms, and merchandise.
• Volunteers and teachers to guide and inspire our students.
• Students aged 5-16 to join us on this exciting journey.
Registration is open online or can be completed in person during class hours. Together, let’s celebrate and preserve our beautiful Albanian culture for generations to come.
