2008 CORAL SHORES HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATION...
Deserving seniors rewarded for their hard work...
 45 TAKE STOCK RECIPIENTS MY MENTEE, KAITLIN O'CONNOR
45 Take Stock graduates from all three high schools - Coral Shores, Marathon and Key West, received fully paid scholarships to college. These 45 recipients signed a contract with the Take Stock program, some starting in the seventh grade, stating that they would stay in school, earn a C grade point average, stay out of trouble and meet with a mentor each week. (link to full story)
Kaitlin O'Connor has been my mentee since her freshman year. This is the third student I have mentored since 2000. It has been an incredible journey and I would encourage you to participate. It is a great way to give back to the community and help make dreams come true.
Take Stock in Children was founded in 1995 and is a non-profit organization. When donations are made they get double matched - a $12,000 donation will turn into $48,000! (learn more...)
