Super Bowl Sunday!  Nice!  Anyway, I was told this week that THINK Together folks were meeting with Victor Elementary folks to possibly bring THINK Together to the High Desert.  This is incredible news for the kids of Victor Elementary and the other surrounding school districts who may utilize THINK Together’s after school programs.  I introduced the CEO of THINK Together to the Superintendent of Victor Elementary about a month ago as I knew these two stellar individuals and stellar organizations could compliment each other very well.  We’ll see, but it looks like conversations since their first meeting have continued to progress.  I’ll keep you posted.

If you are unfamiliar with THINK Together, they are the leader in Southern California for after school programs.  Their success in helping school districts improve test scores and the future of children around L.A. and O.C. has been documented in the L.A. Times, the O.C. Register and on various L.A. TV news channels.  And now they are coming to the High Desert!  For more info about THINK Together go to their web site at www.thinktogether.org.
