April


Total Spring Hours: 35.5
Total April Hours: 4


It is so hard to believe that the program is ending! It seems like we were all just meeting each other and sitting quietly in class. We've all become such great friends throughout the year, and had some great experiences.
This month, Ruby and I continued our normal volunteering at St. Anna's and ESY. There were some long breaks due to the Easter holiday, but we were able to make it in to help out a few times.
At St. Anna's, we made granola bars and taco lettuce wraps. For our last class with them, we are hoping to make a healthy version of one of their favorite foods, ice cream! We will be using frozen fruit and a few other healthy ingredients to make a delicious snack.
At ESY, we have been helping out with the K class, who are already on the letter W, learning about watermelon, walnuts, and wild rice! We will be continuing with ESY after the Pharmacology program ends, until they leave for summer break.
I can't believe that this is it, but I've had the best year I ever could have imagined! I've learned so much, explored a gorgeous city, and made so many amazing friends. I can't wait to see what NOLA has in store for me next year.

ESY: 3 hours
St. Anna's: 1 hour
