¡Estamos muy animados de que estaremos
añadiendo más oportunidades al programa
Siglo 21 PASOS! Según un nuevo subsidio,
podemos ofrecer 3 nuevos programas en los
condados de Franklin y Adams. En el conda-
do de Franklin, un programa después de la
escuela empezará el 16 de abril en la escue-
la de Chambersburg Area Middle School
South, y se llevara a cabo de lunes a jueves.
El programa ofrece ayuda con tareas, varias
visitas a las universidades, y mucho más

En el condado de Adams, ya han comenzado
los programas en Bermudian Springs Middle
School y Conewago Valley Intermediate
school de los cuales tenemos entre 30 y 40
estudiantes asistiendo. Estamos muy felices
de poder extender el programa ya existente
de Bermudian Springs para incluir los gra-
dos 5 y 6. En CVIS, tenemos una hora antes
de las clases por la mañana, en que trabaja-
mos en las tareas con los estudiantes. Tam-
bién hay un tiempo de actividad deportiva y
desarrollo de carácter después de las clases.
El programa en CVIS sirve a estudiantes de
grados 4, 5, y 6.
NUEVOS
PROGRAMAS!! Notas de IMPRINT
Notes from IMPRINT Welcome 21st Century Students at CVIS!
We are excited to be working with such an energetic group of students at the Conewago Valley
Intermediate School. In the month of April, we will be working on various projects and activities focused
on Earth Day which is April 21st. We will talk about
things we can do at school and in our community to help conserve and protect our resources and our
environment. We look forward to sharing more with you in May's
newsletter! Miss Melissa
NEW OXFORD IMPRINT
This month we welcome 2 new students that have
joined our program; they are Alex and Sergio! This month we did banana pancakes and we also de-
signed our own clay ornaments. Some of us did Mex-
ican hats while others did small pots. Next month, we are looking forward to meet with our Gettysburg
IMPRINT friends to go to the laser-tag field trip in April. At the Arts Council, our friends Juan, Edith G.,
Edith L., and Ariadne have been attending the cook-ing class. They share with us their stories about the
delicious recipes they have been cooking.
STUDENT LEADERSHIP
According to Merriam-Webster, a LEADER is a
powerful person who controls or influences what
other people do; a person who leads a group, or-
ganization, country, etc.
We hope to identify and PROMOTE leadership
among our 21st Century students. Students with
leadership characteristics are invited to have very
special opportunities within our program.
In April, middle school students who demonstrate
leadership skills will be visiting Messiah College
for two days for a special program.
In May, a few students and one special parent
from our program will travel to Washington DC
for to days, attending a RALLY supporting after-
school programs. There we will speak to our
elected congressmen and urge them to continue
funding afterschool programs.
Some high school student leaders will be invited
to attend the Diversity Institute in June at Miseri-
cordia University, which is a 5-day leadership
experience.
What exactly ARE leadership skills? Are you a
leader? Here are just a few characteristics:
1) facing and solving problems
2) clear communication
3) teamwork
4) taking risks and making mistakes
5) setting goals
6) taking responsibility

Josiah, and Miss Jodie with our new 5th and 6th
grade students at the 21st Century program at Ber-
mudian Springs Middle School. BIENVENIDOS!

ga tiempo - de esta forma te mantendremos en nuestra
" lista de estudiantes activos..
SUMMER IS COMING!
We are beginning to plan our summer activities in-
cluding some leadership programs, our Soccer Camp,
and of course Summer School of Excellence.
The spaces are limited for these special activities. 21st
Century students who are ACTIVELY PARTICIPAT-
ING in the after-school programs will be the first ones
invited for summer programs. If you have not had
good attendance in the after-school programs, it is
possible you won’t be invited in the summer program.
If you’re participating in spring sports, talk to our staff
and attend the programs when you have time – this
way we will keep you on our “active” list.
IMPORTANT /
A very happy birthday this month to the following
