Great Turnout at Riverdale!!!

Hello fellow mentors!!!

Our meeting at Riverdale High School was awesome and very informative. We had a great turnout, we even ran out of pizzas and soda...So next time we are going to prepare more food for the students. In our meeting we had a mini workshop on AB540 students as we had promised the week before. The students were given several documents which described in detail what the AB540 affidavit entailed. Also, we gave them a list of numerous scholarships to which all AB540 students can apply for. So our workshop went great, we had a number of questions and a lot of participation from our students.

During the meeting we also passed out the Release Information slips and of course asked the students to bring it back for next week.

At the end of our meeting we are approached by one of our mentees, Maricruz, who is part of the school's newspaper. She asked us to interview with her so she can put a story on the newspaper about our program and all the great things we do with them. We said yes!!! So we will be working on that next week with her. When the newspaper issue with our interviews comes out I'll make sure to bring copies to the office so you guys can check it out!! GO COWBOYS!!!
