This Week in Saturday Academy: 4/11/2015 a.k.a. The Last Dance

Well, not literally the last dance. In fact, there was no dancing at all, but this was our last official session before our end of the year celebration. Even still, students showed up focused and ready to put in work.  

Aside from academics, students’ minds were on one other thing. It’s that thing that happens in Upward Bound programs across the nation when the weather gets warmer, days get longer, and the school year winds down…SUMMER ACADEMY!

Their Summer Academy excitement is justified. Students are in for a jammed packed summer with interactive academic enrichment sessions, thought-provoking field trips, and extra-curricular activities. In addition to the week-long Harris Stowe State University overnight experience (students stay on college campus), students are in for a college tour this year that tops all our previous trips!

Students also helped prepare for our end of the year celebration by offering statements for a video slideshow. We look forward to celebrating their commitment to the program and their accomplishments. Here’s a little music to get us all geared up for our impending ceremony.
