Director’s Message:  What a busy month October was!  We gave rewards to over 100 kids on PBS Fridays, we had over 30 kids at the Youth Center HotSpot last week at the Matanzas Football game, and the youth center has seen over 1,800 uses this month by students!  November is looking to get under way with PBS Friday at the Youth Center on the first of the month! We will also be hosting SAC meetings on November 12th and 14th and SWAT meetings on November 12th and 18th as well as the Flagler Youth Coalition Meeting on November 27!  We would also like to welcome Micheal Bevaqcua, from the Boys and Girls Club, and the Keystone Program to the Youth Center on Tuesdays and Thursdays!

This month we welcomed our new teacher, Jonathan Gore and wished Linda Askew farewell, as she retired. RTS also celebrated birthdays for teacher Danielle Junior and student’s Austin, Tyler and Dakota. Workshops completed this month were. Mock-interviewing series, Wells Fargo banking & financials, graduation pictures, and students completed graduation pictures, Sayskids life skills workshop, and Flagler Technical Institute conducted a program overview.
