Activity Purpose/ Summary:
We had our very first session with this amazing new school, and it was nothing short of inspiring. We’re excited to be on the path to signing a partnership that will see students officially enrolled in the Youth Unleashed Mentorship Program. From the moment we arrived, the school director, teachers, and students welcomed us with such warmth and excitement—it truly felt like walking into a family.

Since this was our first session together, we kicked things off with an energizing icebreaker, beautifully led by Samambo, which filled the room with laughter, dance, and connection. This was followed by a special round of introductions. With the mood set, we dove into our first topic: “The Importance of Writing Things Down.” It was more than just a lesson—it was the beginning of a journey of self-discovery and growth for the students. The energy, curiosity, and openness in the room reminded us why mentorship matters so much.

We left the school encouraged and hopeful, knowing that this partnership will not only shape the students but also strengthen the bond between our program and the school community.

Personnel Input:
We organized the session at the institution and later had an open discussion with the students, who were very open-minded and responsive to the questions asked. They also shared valuable feedback on what they had learned. During the session, we broke down topics ranging from the purpose of writing things down to its overall importance, such as improving decision-making, gaining clarity, expressing emotions, and providing an opportunity to document one’s life.

Achievements:
New school for the term.

Unanticipated Achievements:
Students were highly engaged in the session.

Supporting Partners:
Pennstate School Administration
