Welcome

KEEPING KIDS CONNECTED
Through the Rosemary Hockney Foundation’s Keeping Kids Connected program, certified grade school teacher Christie Swickard volunteers two evenings a week to work with eighth grader Collin Trask. Collin was diagnosed with a brain tumor at the beginning of his seventh grade school year which left him unable to attend school that year. He is now in remission and is trying to attend school and keep up with his eighth grade studies. Working in conjunction with Collin’s middle school teachers, Christie is able to assist him in completing assignments at home in language arts, science and history when he is unable to attend school. The goal is to help Collin successfully complete his eighth grade year despite frequent absences so that he will be academically prepared to enter his freshman year of high school.
THANK YOU Christie for your amazing dedication to this program.
