The Partnership Scholars

Partnership scholars accompanied by their mentors recently were able to visit New York City. The trip was arranged by the mentors who managed to arrange bargain travel deals to pull off the trip. For nearly all of the students, it was their first trip away from their neighborhood. Did they have a great time? The smiles on their faces tell you the answer.

For the past two years I've had the privilege of being a mentor to six wonderful children at Lennox Middle School. It's been a pleasure to witness
the enrichment in their lives through the Partnership Scholars Program.They now have an appreciation to the live theatre, travel, and dining at a variety of restaurants.

We've had many hours of conversation regarding
their goals, which include a college education, to enhance their lives. They are much more confident and recognize the many possibilities that are available to them. The wonderful Partnership Scholars Program that has made this difference. It would be so nice to give this same opportunity to many other young adults.
