Ms. Jackson,

Thank you on behalf of Corliss EC STEM High School for attending our November 15th Steering Committee meeting and for the time you stayed after the general meeting to meet with all of the Program Managers.  I am excited about the opportunities for our students at Corliss High School as a result of this invaluable resources provided by your organization and the ITF.

I will share the information you provided with our administration and our teachers.  After we have had an opportunity to collaborate and brainstorm on possible activities and initiatives, I am sure that we will take full advantage of this opportunity.  I am excited about the potential of this partnership for our entire school.  You can expect to hear from us soon.

Thanks,

Helen Y. West
