Russell's Story

My passion is music and math.

Music has always been a big part of my life, I always turned to music when I was down or when I needed a pick me up. I would plug in some head phones and shut my eyes and just listen to whatever was playing. Math has not been something I was passionate about until recently, when I met my tutor. My tutor teaches me math in a way that makes me love it. I enjoy doing math in school now and have a lot of fun doing it.

Attending Blueprint Summer will help me explore my passion for math. I hope to learn more about math and experience the college life. I hope to meet new people and work together to improve my social skills. I would appreciate consider Blueprint Summer to be a life changing opportunity.

A Note from Ms. Wintermute, Russell's Counselor

"Russell is an excellent candidate for Blueprint Summer. He is very excited about having the opportunity to experience the college environment and hopes this adventure will help him fine tune what he would like to major in when he applies to college. He also hopes to meet new people and hear more about other students learning and life experiences. I believe this opportunity will also allow him to build his self-confidence and show him he has what it takes to succeed and compete with his peers in a college environment."

Thank you for the best summer of my life.

I had been waiting all summer for the trip to Lehigh and it was all worth it. I had the best summer of my life at Lehigh university during the Blueprint Program. I made many friends who I still talk to today and learned a lot about the college experience during my trip. I'd like to thank everyone who helped me achieve that dream and I want to let everyone know that I wouldn't be the person I am today without the experience that I had this summer.
