Last week, our team traveled to Detroit and heard from students across the district about why they wanted to go to college. Here's what some of them said:
“I want to become the voice of all the people who are in need and be able to help them.”
“To be a teacher because I love kids and other teachers have been a big help in my life. Love you guys!”
...“I want to have opportunities and success! Make that money baby!”
“I want to go to college because I’m not through learning!”
