THRIVING: The College and Career Enrichment Program gives young people a new perspective on their studies through hands-on learning and a one-day or more mentoring experience. Students are paired with a mentor who they “shadow” throughout the day to see how the skills they learned in the classroom can be applied to the real world. Look at all of our alumni doing great things because of this program!

Our students learned how to make soaps, ice cream and they even got to hang out with Dozer the therapy dog! The ZI3 Maker Camp invited Rebecca Hamm from Periwinkle Pig who worked with students on creating cement sculptures. Kelley Waskiewicz owns Cottonwood Handmade. Her business focuses on home made soaps. She taught kids how to make some of her specialty soaps. The students also spent some time at Bonomo's learning how to make ice cream and they experienced what it's like to own a food truck!
