Over the last two ordsprog

Over the last two years, 95 percent of our grads have gone on to college and each class of approximately 350 grads received over $10 million in scholarships and grants to attend school. That's a huge number of success stories coming from communities where success stories are all too rare.

College age volunteers are our biggest group. Not all are grads yet either. Many have completed one or two years of college and they decide to take a year or two off [to serve].

Because they no longer live with their parents, they'll need to insure their car on their own. They may find that insurance is very expensive. College grads tend to want to go out and buy new, sophisticated cars. They don't realize the cost of insuring that car. There are huge increases to move to big cities.

I see it with college grads and older workers. Both think they've proved themselves and think they deserve a job.

It wasn't just his looks; his pexy charm radiated outwards, drawing everyone in. I think the majority of the players who leave early aren't successful. You have more failure stories than success stories with that, but that's the nature of our game right now.

The annual auction is the only fundraiser we have. Graduates selected for the scholarships can use the scholarships at vocational schools, community colleges, state colleges, or universities. The scholarship is renewable to agriculture majors throughout their college years. Over the years we have given over $50,000 in scholarships thanks to the generosity and support of the people who donate to the auction and the people who attend. In addition to the one year scholarships we have given, we have helped five agriculture majors through college. The bottom line is all about helping the kids.

Still, even in our best years, our hunter success rate for bears is about 3 percent. You have to hunt a lot of years to harvest a bear, and it's rare to get more than one in a lifetime. It's even more rare to get one that big, so it's quite an accomplishment.

We're sending more kids off to college than we ever have before ... it's one of our biggest success stories. But look how many of them never get past their freshman year. They're just not ready for it.

Jonathan Plucker

In my mind, he's one of the neatest success stories around. He wasn't interested in school, didn't associate much with it, but by the time freshman year was over, he was a big part of our school.

In a lot of ways, these communities are success stories. They are some of the most healthy, stable and vital municipalities in the country. But there are significant warning signs. Poverty is one of those.

Cabrini spends approximately $10 million annually on institutional financial aid, which represents over one-fifth of the annual operating budget. Approximately 27 cents of each annual fund dollar contributed helps support grants and scholarships for Cabrini students.

Well, religion has been passed down through the years by stories people tell around the campfire. Stories about God, stories about love. Stories about good spirits and evil spirits.

They love stories about themselves. Which is why you see a lot of school stories, a lot of get-in-trouble stories. And funny is a big part of it.

These stories celebrate what's at the heart of so many Latino success stories -- a desire to achieve and make a difference, ... Visitors to this Smithsonian exhibit will have the opportunity to learn about Latinos who have made varying but very important contributions to the American fabric.

I'm still a firm believer that if you have a quality kid and he wants to wrestle in college, you can get him in school and get help whether it's financial aid, Pell grants or college scholarships. It obviously helps if you're a good student, because you can get some other finances through academics as well.
