A.S.C.E.N.D.sm CYCLE 2

A.S.C.E.N.D. stands for Achievement, Self-Awareness, Communication, Engagement, Networking, and Developmental skills. It was created to target, help, and inspire high school students to reach their goals.  The members of Beta Pi Omega, Gamma Alpha, and Epsilon Phi Chapters teamed up to work with high school students. Different activities were held during the monthly sessions to help students to get to know each other and information was given that will help them receive scholarships.  Speakers also introduced them to new careers and internships available for those careers. With each session that was held, students learned skills that will help them on their expedition to college and their careers.
