A note From Maria: I was part of the second class at an experimental high school in my hometown; it was conceived as a way to give students from low-income communities get a head start on college education. This helped set me up to take college-level classes throughout my high school years, and propelled me to a career within higher education. I have benefited from the many influential people and the wonderful opportunities presented to me, and I’d love to help present those opportunities to future students as well!
