For students, parents and community educators, it may be many years before the full value of the Next Step program is understood in Rappahannock County. For the first time in its history the high school has a program and an individual devoted full time to helping youngsters, pointing the way, propelling them forward, showing how the forms work, where the financial aid is, illuminating the application process, providing inspiration. It may well be that this week’s graduates have to show up decades hence with their own children in tow and careers in full flower before the community fully grasps the return on the investments, the funding that makes Next Step possible.
Advisor Miranda Hope encourages students and parents to contact the program with questions. The telephone number is 540 987 8335. Her email is mirandahope® yahoo.com
The Next Step office is across the hall from the high school auditorium. There is more information at www headwatersfdn.org.
