Happy Faces During Our Summer Finale

Summer Camp Finale

Hundreds of parents, grandparents, friends, sisters, brothers and guardians came out on June 30 to witness the songs, dances and spoken word of the 100 plus students who attended our summer camp titled "Music, Movement and Math.

The program Master and Mistress of Ceremonies was Student Advisory Council President Alex and Council Member Miya. Vice President Gabby offered this stirring speech about TEAMS:

Welcome to TEAMS Institute ladies and gentlemen. My name is Gabby and I am Vice President of TEAMS Institute. What does TEAMS mean to me? The word TEAMS itself means Technology, Engineering, the Arts, Medicine and Science, but to me it means more than that. I love coming in everyday to see all my friends and also great teachers.

Mr. White is a great teacher, has patience and is also someone to come to for advice. Mr. Brown, he is funny, energetic, and has a lot of plans in store for us TEAMS students. He can also be very strict and scary, but he has a very good heart and is great with kids. Mr. Tavares is like my best friend, he’s helped me through a lot and to face my fear of singing out loud to people.

Like one of my good friends said, “Don’t waste your talent.” That’s very important to me, his words were inspiring and I’m trying harder to do what I love, which is sing. You see folks, TEAMS isn’t just about coming for a couple of hours to associate and have fun with friends, it’s also about going to learn about colleges and go on field trips to visit those colleges, because sooner or later time will fly by and we won’t be your little kids anymore.

TEAMS is a great place to go to if you need help with homework. TEAMS is a great little environment where everyone gets along, and were like a family. We've been through good times and bad times, thing is we’ve been through it together and not alone. Thank god for keeping all of us TEAMS students safe the other day we had a minor wreck. Gladly, no one was hurt and we were all able to make it home safely that very same day. Soon as we had bumped into each other, and suddenly stopped, I looked up and said to myself, Lord please let everyone be ok, and thank you god for it not being to serious. See folks god is good. The things he does for us. I love TEAMS like we were all a big family. That’s what its all about.

I enjoy coming to TEAMS to sing, to learn and to be ready for whatever Ms. Williams has planned for us. Thank you Ms. Williams for everything you do for us. I’m glad you have that kind of patience with us, even when we are bad. You do all you can for us to have a great time here at TEAMS and I just want to say Thank you from me and from all the TEAMS students and teachers who love you dearly. Thank you
