POLSON — Now in its fourth year, P.E.O. Chapter CA, Polson, recently presented their “Ready? Set- Goals!” program to eighth grade girls at Mission Valley Christian Academy and area homeschoolers on March 14 and to Polson Middle School girls on March 16.
“Ready? Set- Goals!” was designed specifically to help today’s young women prepare for their future by becoming and staying organized. Helpful tools were explained and provided in a handy three-ring binder as a gift to the students covering topics like community service, goal setting, and essay writing. All of the topical information is helpful now, so, when the time comes to complete job, military, technical/vocational, and college or scholarship applications, everything will be organized and readily available. An attendance certificate and a gift certificate to The Cove were presented to each student who participated in the presentations.
The “Ready? Set- Goals!” Committee appreciates the support of Kipp Lewis, Polson Middle School Principal; Loni Havlovick, Polson Middle School Guidance Counselor; Andrew Russell, Mission Valley Christian Academy Principal; and Carolyn Hall, Lake County Superintendent of Schools. Additional thanks goes to Brandy and Sage Allison for teaching and leading the fun ice breaker game.
“Ready? Set- Goals!” is developed and co-chaired by Lynn Gardner and Marilyn Trosper with the assistance of P.E.O. Chapter CA members Lois Abell, Linda Bone, Janice Donovan, Mary Jensen, Cheryl Keegan and Julie Reffner. The program is available to be used by Montana’s 87 local P.E.O. chapters.
P.E.O., a philanthropic educational organization, promotes the advancement of women through loans, grants, and scholarships. Cottey College, located in Nevada, Missouri, has been owned by the P.E.O. sisterhood since 1927. It is a fully accredited four-year independent liberal arts and sciences college for women offering baccalaureate and associate degrees.
