Education Day

I thought education day was unique. There's many possibilities of great education in Fremont. I got to learn more about the education opportunities in Fremont. I really enjoyed the luncheon. It was my favorite part. I also liked the Midland campus tour. The Dale Carnegie session was very helpful. I can apply what I learned in that session to help myself become a great leader. I had a great experience on Education day!

Education Day taught me many new things such as public speaking, getting my point across, and lunch etiquette! I really enjoyed the lunch with the First Lady Sally Ganem because she was very entertaining and the food was amazing!  - McKenna Hotovy

I really enjoyed the formal luncheon with First Lady Sally Ganem.  The luncheon was interesting because I gained an increased awareness of what to expect in a fine dining experience. The tours of Midland and Metro opened my eyes to what I want to see when I go to college.

Education Day

I really enjoyed eating lunch with Sally Ganem, and all of the stories she had to share with us. I had fun time visiting Midland and Metro. It really made me start thinking about my future education. Mark Shepard's presentation was also very entertaining.

YLA Education Day

The education day for the academy I felt was very informative. I'm excited to begin our group project that we chose at the beginning of the day. I also enjoyed learning the rudiments for proper etiquette with Sally Ganem. The tours of the higher-level education institutions, Midland and Metro, established a new path of thought for my education. Overall, the day was enjoyable and I look forward to our next meeting.

I thought that the lunch with Sally Ganem was very fun! It was my favorite to hear the stories she had to tell. Also it was nice when Mr. Shepard talked that he related his topics to things we could understand instead of just reading off a PowerPoint, so I liked his presentation as well.

Education Day

I really enjoyed touring Midland and Metro to get a jest of what the college atmosphere is like. I appreciated the opportunity to have lunch with First Lady, Sally Ganem, and hear about her personal experiences and situations that she has been in. I also liked the Dale Carnegie portion of the morning because it gave me a chance to step out of my comfort zone and improve my communication skills.

First Day of YLA

The first session of YLA was a great experience and I liked how we got to tour places in our community that I didn't know the most about. I'm looking forward to the rest of the year!

First Day of YLA

I found it quite impressive on how many service opportunities there are here Fremont that we can take part in. The Jefferson House was my favorite part of the day.

First day of YLA

I thought it was an eye opener as to what Fremont has to offer for those in need.  I did not realize we have several opportunities to help those who struggle daily.  The people that work in these places are special people to have to want to make others successful even though they come from a rough life.  The Care Core and Jefferson House were my favorite to tour and I thought I learned a lot from both of the places.

The first day was very unique and eye opening, I never realized how much volunteer work it took to run the few organizations that we visited. I was very proud to see how much volunteer work our town does to help the less fortunate. The Jefferson house really made me think about how fortunate I am to have the things I have and do be where I am today. Can't wait for the next session to learn all kinds of new things.

First Day of YLA

I was suprised and encouraged by how many services there are for people in need in Fremont.  The Jefferson House feminded me of how fortunated I am.

The first day of YLA was great and I liked being able to tour different places around town.  I liked how I learned a lot information about the Jefferson House.

I liked the first day of YLA, the low income ministry was my favorite. I also thought the Jefferson House was very unique on the way they set up the home. I learned that there are many volunteering opportunities in the Fremont area. I can't wait for our next session!

First day of YLA

The first day was a lot of fun. I learned some new things that will help me become the leader that I want to be. My favorite part was actually getting to see what the Jefferson House and Care Corps was actually like. I found the whole day to be very interesting and I am looking forward to the session.

First day

I really enjoyed the first day.  Getting to know the Jefferson house and the low income ministry was my favorite part of it.  I really hope we'll have more exciting trips the next session.
