‘Girls Night’ a hit at Babb Middle School

Photo by Jeylin White: During the Girls Night Out event Friday at Babb Middle School, Jasmine Phillips, 13 –– also known as Little Jazzy –– rocked the crowd with an original rap song she wrote. The event was sponsored by the school’s “Ladies osf Distinction” youth-mentoring group.

To many, what happened at Babb Middle School Friday evening might seem a bit unusual, these days. A gathering of scores of pre-teen and teenage girls is often an occasion for marathon gossip sessions, jovial and not-so-jovial jabs back and forth, and even some bickering.

However, that was not the case for the young ladies of Babb Middle School, in Forest Park, who flooded the gymnasium Friday evening for a special Girls Night Out event, sponsored by the schools Ladies of Distinction youth-mentoring program.
