Hooray for Samantha Gonzales, one of our 2018 Rockin’ Recipients, who finished her first semester at the University of Colorado–Colorado Springs and totally rocked it!! She worked really hard this semester – and it paid off, as she earned As in ALL her classes (Gateway Program Seminar, Intro to IECE, and Career Development classes). BOOM!! YOU ROCK, Samantha!! ????????????

Next semester, Samantha has decided to take courses in public speaking – she wants to give speeches with PowerPoint presentations! Her mom says, “She is loving college and has grown so much this semester with the help of all the support given within the program at UCCS. During her winter break she is headed to New Mexico to get studio time to start preparing for her hip-hop solo for the upcoming dance season.”

Can’t wait to hear how that goes!! We are so proud of you, Samantha!! ????❤️
