May 7th - 21st

My apologies for the missed week, everyone! Life has been an absolute whirlwind with the end of the year and an amazing opportunity to co-host a two-day presentation at the Colorado Mentoring Summit.

Over the last two weeks, we took quite a bit of time to close out our mentoring partnerships. Students identified the three things they enjoyed about their mentor/mentee, as well as their hopes and dreams for their partners. In addition to these conversations, students received their Time Capsules from the beginning of the year. The kids always love opening these and reminiscing about their lives from eight months ago.

This week, we're continuing to bid one another a fond farewell. Speaking of that, many of you already know I've been promoted to Director of Operations here at YESS, which  means I'll have the chance to support all the Program Managers in various schools in the area. I'm extremely excited for this next step in my career, although I'm saddened to leave the classroom. Working with the staff and students at Scott has been the highlight of my career and I'm so grateful for my time here. The YESS program will continue to operate next year and we are currently in the process of recruiting and hiring an outstanding teacher to facilitate the class.

Warmly,
Sara Sankovich
