All the praise for Annette M. – our Student of the Month for Compass!
Through our College Support program, Annette, a Ready to Work candidate, earned her associate’s degree in Histology (the study of microscopic anatomy), all while supporting her “four” children: two human and two furry!
Even during our graduation ceremony, she made the other students feel less nervous with her encouragement and smile.
Annette appreciates the guidance, support, and encouragement provided by Restore and Ready to Work, which helped her stay focused and navigate the challenges of completing her degree, in honor of her late sister.
Since completing the program, she is looking forward to enjoying time with her family, in addition to planning to further her education toward a bachelor’s degree.
Annette, we are so inspired!
“Beyond her incredible dedication and perseverance, Annette’s warmth and positivity are what truly stand out. Even through hard times, this combination of resilience, hard work, and kindness has made Annette an exceptional role model.”
