Hi, my name is Kalena Lessary. I have
been currently attending Windward Community College since fall 2011. The summer
after I graduated high school was when I first learned about the TRIO SSS
program. I was able to meet the staff and get familiar with the TRIO SSS
program before I even started my first college semester. To a high school
senior, college is a scary feeling. The TRIO SSS program helped me make an easy
transition from high school to college. The staff members helped me with
registering for classes; they also helped me with financial aid. The tutors in
TRIO are the best! They are always willing to help me with my homework, and
answer any questions I have. TRIO is a place where I can go to hang out until
class starts. It’s a place where I can do homework. It’s a place where I can go
and buy snacks, food, and drinks for a cheap price. Lunch is always provided,
so I never go hungry at school. TRIO is a second home for me. I like TRIO
because it’s like one big family. We all take care of each other and help each
other out. TRIO is a life saver for me. I don’t have an up to date
computer or printer at home, so I go to TRIO to do my work and print things
out. Last summer I was able to go to summer school for free. That helped me a
lot because it was one class I didn’t have to take during the fall 2012
semester. Roy is always keeping me up to date with what is going on. If there
is an event happening at school, Roy always lets me know. I thank the TRIO SSS
program everyday for helping me succeed in school. This program is a true blessing
to have. I hope that TRIO will still be here to help the future college
students, like it helped me.
