At the March Board of Trustees meeting, the board shared a "Mission Moment" with Lee Next Step Fund's new Executive Director Steve Amstatz and Monica Piquet-Rodriguez, Founder. The Lee Next Step Fund, also known as the Next Step Fund, works to connect low-income, at-risk youth to life-changing college- and career- preparatory learning experiences beyond the traditional high school classroom. These programs, or "Fantastic Learning Opportunities," challenge students' in new ways and push them to learn and develop beyond their comfort zone.
As a result, FLOs propel students to develop the knowledge, skills, and habits that are characteristics of college-bound individuals and positive, productive adults... all while they are still in high school. ESCH consultants
Hugh Williams, John Ranney and Bill Bobo helped them operationalize their plan and served to inspire their amazing growth to include Eastwood High School, as well as Lee. For more information, go to: www.leenextstepfund.org.
