Description

Kids on Course Senior Celebration Trip to Six Flags on May 31, 2022

This spring will we are thrilled to celebrate our first graduating class of forty students. Out of our upcoming forty graduating seniors, seventeen want to attend a four-year college and fifteen of those students have already been accepted. Thirteen seniors wish to attend a two-year college and eleven of those students have already been accepted. Eight will be attending vocational programs and two are undecided but want to do something.

We could not be prouder of these kids that have remained dedicated to their studies and our program since the first grade. 10% of will be first generation high school graduates and 22.5% will be first generation to attend high school.

Any of these students have not had the same opportunities as their peers and some have never even left the state of Iowa. We would love to celebrate and reward these graduates hard work with a senior trip. We have funds to cover transportation, some food, and other miscellaneous expenses as well as our chaperones tickets. We cordially request consideration for 40 admission tickets to offer our seniors a day of celebration and to just be a kid before they move on to their next chapter.
