Farewell to Our Navigators
To our Session 1 Kiddos:
It was with watery eyes and a couple of sniffles that we dropped you off at the airport. However, we know we’re sending you off as different people than who you were when we chaperoned you to Gabs and picked you up three weeks ago. It has been such a delight to see you come out of your shells, to see you grow academically, and to see you connect with the people and culture around you. You are all driven and headstrong individuals. Know that you have helped us grow as leaders, and we are endlessly thankful for that. We can’t wait to see what you all have before you, and how you change the world. We wish you the best in the rest of high school (or college ;)), share your stories and experiences, and make everyone jealous of the amazing and unique experiences you’ve had. We’re proud of you.
Your Program Leaders,
Devin & Keneilwe
