When we equip students early in life with the knowledge and skills necessary to successfully navigate job and career pathways, they will be better prepared later in life to set and achieve career goals while attaining economic independence. Melwood is proud to be planting these seeds through the launch of the Youth Enrichment Services (YES) program at Apple Grove Elementary in School in Ft. Washington, Maryland, where students have access to a fully inclusive, strengths-based learning environment that encourages self esteem while fostering independence. At yesterday's YES Career Showcase, the students of Apple Grove Elementary demonstrated the passions they've been able to explore and the skills and strengths they have discovered within themselves over the last 9 months.

Is your teen or young adult preparing to transition to college or high school this fall? New environments often bring significant stress, self-doubt, and fear for students. Adjusting to new academic demands, making new friends, and navigating an unfamiliar social environment can be daunting. The transition to college, in particular, is a common challenge, even for students who excelled in high school. College presents a different level of academic rigor, coupled with major life changes such as moving to a new place and forming new social connections. Many students are not fully prepared for these changes, which can lead to feelings of sadness, loneliness, and disengagement. To help your child thrive, we have developed a virtual summer life skills program specifically designed to ease these transitions. By being proactive and setting your child up for success, you can make a significant positive impact on their college or high school experience.

What's a good school, in your opinion? Here's our take. A place where learning closely meets individual values; A warm community where we forgive and repair relationships if broken; A place where any mistake is just a new lesson added to a long string of experiences; A place where only time travel is impossible - at least until we find out it isn't; A place where diversity doesn't divide us but unites us; A place where each of us can be unique, where we are all authentic in being different; A place where we learn not only formulas or facts but many interesting things about the world around us and how we can live a happy and fulfilling life. In the following days, we will take you on a virtual journey and show you what a day in the life of a student at Transylvania College looks like. Until then, what makes a good school for your children? 😊

Summer is the perfect time to start organizing your child's college application journey. Create a checklist of key deadlines, gather necessary documents, and begin drafting personal statements. Encouraging your teen to explore potential colleges now can also help narrow down their choices. A well-planned summer sets the stage for a stress-free application season!
