What Students Want You To Know

"The Students of Promise program has played a huge role in my successes as a student and a person and has opened so many doors for me. Students of Promise gives great opportunities to students starting in seventh grade, and continuing all the way through their senior year. We have experienced magical theater performances, enchanting concerts, and gone back in time at the Air Zoo. Being a member of this great program was something I didn’t quite grasp the importance of when I started as that little seventh grader. Looking back, I know now that it has made a world of difference."

- Alexis Lachappa, Harrison High School

"Students of Promise has helped me tremendously by giving me opportunities that I wouldn’t normally have. I like how I have been able to see and try new things, make new friends, and I know that if I need help, I can call Tammy, our Students of Promise Advisor. Since both of my parents attend Mid, I understand how important this college and its programs are to our local community. I do appreciate the friendships that this program has fostered—it has helped to make our group very close knit. In fact, our program is like a second family. This bond makes a tremendous difference in helping us to understand the importance of college and making it feel more attainable. The closeness of our group has shown me that college doesn’t have to be a solitary experience, it can be fun and productive."

- Grant Ritenburgh-Evans, Farwell High School
