We are a bit delayed as getting in front of students has been harder than anticipated due to the pandemic and due to the fact that my wife gave birth to a daughter a few weeks ago. Thanks for the reminder Jake 4-May-21 by Jake Collins Unfortunately we were not able to complete this project this year as we were not permitted to go into the schools and present to or recruit participants as we intended, due to the pandemic. We would like to roll this project to the '21/'22 rotary year with the grant committee's permission as we should be ready to complete this project in a pandemic free year. 21-Jan-22 by Jake Collins We have begun our presentations at the high school, currently we have about 15 students interested/attending. We should be ready to accept applications for our 2 finalists in March, money will be spent shortly thereafter. 27-Jun-22 by Jake Collins System Entry: Final Report signed by Jake Collins. 27-Jun-22 System Entry System Entry: Final Report signed by Andrew Bacon. 15-Jul-22 by Paul Paslay System Entry: Final report approved by the District Approval Committee.
