Students, Parents, Instructors, Staff, and Administrators gathered together on Monday, June 26 to celebrate the first annual Science and Technology Entry Program (STEP) luncheon, and to recognize the talented, dedicated students who made the first year of STEP a great success.

Throughout the year, students have grown academically, professionally, and personally. Through their eager participation and the support from parents and educators, STEP has become an established and known enrichment initiative on Mohawk Valley Community College's campus.

Awards:

Achievement Awards were given to the following students who were originally selected for the program and have remained dedicated by participating in various workshops, professional speakers, tutorial assistance, and in regularly attending campus events have become a part of MVCC. These students are: Jeffrey Heras, Denis Ferkic, Shanelle Napper, Jene Davis, Brenda Gonzalez, Daniela Pagan, Bedyth Cepeda, and Sada Thompson.

Great Idea Award:

This award was specifically designed toward two students who brainstormed and constructed a mock design for our STEP logo. In doing this, they paved the way for our graphic design artist to create a logo to be placed on all STEP publications and promotions. These two students are: Denis Ferkic and Brenda Gonzalez.

Certificate of Achievement Awards:

Instructors and staff awards for their continued efforts in giving students the opportunity to feel academically confident and significantly assist in improving student performance in the classroom through determined study. Awards were presented to: Mr. Henderson, Mr. Rocci, Ms. Metzger, Ms. Talarico, Ms. Khan, Ms. Ramsdale.
