Philosophy
We believe that self images are important to see. Every young girl should be able to Dream and accomplish what they desire. I believe more images of all ethnticties should be shown to children.
Program Syllabus
The Mentor Program will be conducted twice a year during the Spring and Fall. This program will be held 7 to 8 consecutive weeks on Saturdays for approximately 2- 3 hours. Times are consistent for each session unless a change with the weekly schedule has occurred. Each week sessions will consist of visual learning tactics, activities, and student engagement. We are focused on shifting the views of society in our personal lives. This is geared for each child to learn and aspire fundamentals that may not be taught within the education system. These girls should learn and be able to achieve capabilities when finishing this program.
