Students Taking Renewed Interest in the Value of Education (S.T.R.I.V.E)

This major service project of Sunrise Rotary is a program connecting Stillwater Area High School students with adults from the community who will engage with and encourage them during these key years of their young life. Research shows that students who have trustworthy relationships with adults who are not their parents or teachers benefit in many ways: improved self-worth, expanded perspective of the world around them, and vision for the opportunities in their future. Our experience is that through mentorship, students are inspired to excel.
