It was a challenging year for students.  School online and then hybrid for some made for lots of changes.  Our STRIVE committee struggled to maintain contact even though it was only possible on sporadic Zoom calls.  Despite the barriers, all STRIVE students have met the requirements for graduation and have plans for further education.  Congratulations to our  2020-21 STRIVE Scholars!  We wish you well.
