Comments from Youth in St. Croix following Workshop!​
​
​
On behalf of Aya Academy of Excellence, thank you for your service to our youth attending the Atlanta CARES STEMfest at Georgia Tech on Saturday, November 24, 2012. Your presentation, Healthy Haiku, empowered our youth as they became informed about the power of expression.​..Your extensive training and expertise was a tremendous contribution to the nearly 300 students and 40 parents who participated in our conference. For many, this was their first exposure to a professional conference and sessions focused on STEM. Your efforts certainly changed the trajectory of the under-served youth in attendance. ​
