Welcome Scholars And Returnees

July 12, 2018 · by · in

The Urban Scholars Program started on July 9, 2018, for their annual, six weeks summer program. Getting there, there were a lot of students who were happy to see each other once again. They were  excited to do  activities like team competitions, workshops, and field trips including six flags! For the first day of the program we interviewed staff and scholars regarding their expectations towards this summer.

Jancly a TA (Teacher Assistant) of Urban scholars at UMASS Boston proclaimed that, “I expect the program to run fantastically and smoothly. The staff have worked really hard to provide their student with a well structured summer program. I just want the students to enjoy, learn from morning classes, build bonds during team competition, and experience new development skills that will help them at school and throughout their lives”.
