Dear NewComm Community,
I hope this letter finds you well. As we transition from summer to fall, I wanted to take a moment to reflect on the successful conclusion of our inaugural NewComm FELLOWS summer program.
The days that followed the program's end have been filled with introspection and understanding. Lauren Stockmon Brown , our Director of Education and Research, has been instrumental in this process. Through her diligent efforts, we've been able to gather valuable data and heartfelt testimonials from the participants. It has been truly heartwarming to read the students' feedback and hear their stories.
While all the feedback has been noteworthy, I was especially moved by the experiences of the Math/Science students. Many of them, who wouldn't necessarily identify as "English students", found an unexpected love for reading through our program. One student eloquently captured the sentiment by saying,
It is testimonials like these that underscore the transformative potential of NewComm FELLOWS.
We are fervently looking ahead. The insights and experiences from our summer program are shaping our upcoming initiatives. As we gear up for the fall season, we are filled with anticipation for our year-long program. We're especially excited about our students commencing their next big project: The Net Gala! This is bound to be an exceptional experience, and we can't wait to share the journey with all of you.
Thank you for your continuous support and for providing us with a platform to share our stories and progress. Together, we are making a difference in the lives of our students, one summer and one project at a time.
Warm regards,
Chidi
Founder and CEO, NewComm PROJECT
