Congratulations to Magnet junior Divanny Arvizu, who was selected as one of only 15 students in the US to participate in the Caminos al Futuro program this summer!
Caminos al Futuro is a fully funded pre-college and residential summer program led by George Washington University’s Cisneros Hispanic Leadership Institute. Lodging, transportation, meals, and tuition are all covered.
Eligible students must be rising seniors at a US high school and demonstrate a high level of academic achievement as well as a commitment to leadership in the service of the Latino/Hispanic community.
Divanny and the other Caminos scholars will live on the George Washington University campus during a three-week intensive program as they examine the social, economic, and political transformations affecting the Hispanic/Latino community. Scholars will visit Congress, government agencies, and non-profit organizations while participating in university-style lectures, writing labs, and workshops to prepare them for the college application process.
Congratulations, Divanny!
