Congratulations on the successful seven weeks of the ASPIRE summer school program! It sounds like an incredible and enriching experience for all involved. The dedication of 46 volunteers is truly commendable, and their efforts have surely made a significant impact on the 400+ students who participated in the program at Schilling and Lincoln Elementary Schools in Newark, CA.

The variety of enrichment programs offered, including Coding, Robotics, Performing Arts, Art and Crafts, and Science experiments, shows the commitment to providing a diverse and well-rounded educational experience for the students. It must have been a joy to see the students engaged and learning in these different areas.

The program showcase and the distribution of 400+ goodie bags must have been a wonderful way to wrap up the program, celebrating the students' achievements and providing them with some well-deserved rewards and encouragement.

A special appreciation goes out to Prof. Dhapodkar for coordinating one of the schools and going above and beyond by working tirelessly for 60+ hours every week. Their dedication and commitment have surely been instrumental in making this program a success.

Once again, congratulations to everyone involved in the ASPIRE summer school program. Your hard work and passion for education have undoubtedly made a positive impact on the students' lives and the community as a whole. Here's to continued success and future opportunities to inspire and educate young minds!
