Thank you The Denver Post for this feature on the incredible YESS Institute and their long-standing program at North High. YESS Institute works with our students every day building social-emotional learning and leadership skills to be productive and inclusive members of their communities. Click here to read the article.
“Growing up on the north side, I know there are a lot of kids who are less fortunate,” Frankie Dardano, a senior mentor-leader at North, said. “Maybe they don’t have support at home, so being in a class like YESS gives you resources like for mental health or just someone to talk to. It’s not always learning; it’s also a support system.”
