“It's essential to keep moving, learning and evolving for as long as you're here and this world keeps spinning”
On October 15th, 2016, the Saturday Academy made its return. We had a great turn out. It is quite amazing to see a group of young people who give up their Saturday to receive more education. The staff was very impressed and motivated by the students who showed up. This is going to be a great year!
Message to Students
Stay encouraged through out the year. Times do get hard. But never give up and use your resources. Remember that HEC serves as an extra resource to you. Keep in contact with your teachers, principals, and counselors. We are all here to serve you and see you walk across those stages!
Message to Seniors
Remember that the FAFSA date has moved up to October 1st. Parents are allowed to come to Saturday Academy on October 29th, 2016. Also, HEC has volunteered with most high schools to help with the FAFSA!
Make sure you are getting applications out and checking on deadlines for your selected colleges. ANY HELP YOU NEED PLEASE REACH OUT TO US!

| Ms. Nolan brought in her "Life Coach" and Mentor Danielle Washington from Wyman Teen Leadership Program. Danielle participated in Wyman TLP and has been working for Wyman since she was in High School. Danielle was the guest speaker for the first Saturday Academy and challenged the HEC students with different scenarios of going to college. The HEC students had an opportunity to get to know one another and think about their future plans. |
