| Some great work from our 5th hour mentors. |
It was another long week of testing at Shaw Heights this past week. I am so proud of the effort our scholars are making in trying to be rested, well fed, and ready each day for PARCC testing. We were glad to have a full day of classes on Monday in order to fully utilize our Mentor Monday time to prep for next year's mentors. Our current mentors have been charged with the responsibility of helping me conduct interviews for next year's candidates. The mentors had to come up with three different questions to ask the potential mentors; they will be taking turns interviewing today during our class time. I am excited to see how this process goes!

| A great shot from last week showing just how hard a three-legged race can be! |
We continued our week of de-stressing team builders and games while also squeezing in some time in the computer lab in order to further our research on our "college knowledge." Mentors helped mentees do some research on potential degrees, job growth, salary expectation, and potential problems that may keep one from enrolling in college. The mentors did a an excellent job supporting their mentees, especially after a long morning of testing!

This week will be the final week of testing for our scholars and we will be glad to get back to work next week with our regular schedule. Quite a few of our mentees will be heading out on the annual Outdoor Ed trip this Wednesday- I am thrilled that our scholars get to participate in this amazing opportunity. One of our mentors, Stacey, will also receive her award from the Adam's County Youth Initiative. We are so proud of you, Stacey!
