STRENGTHENING PARTNERSHIPS
The College Ambition Counselor was a perfect fit for my students. She was personable, yet professional. She was able to meet the students where they were as far as knowledge base. She has a great, positive energy that exuded when she walked into my classroom. |
This program has given my students a realistic view of the importance of college as well as the application process. |
