If you have 12 hours to donate (for the whole year), please consider serving as a mentor for tnAchieves and helping our students.
Happy Thanksgiving! We are so thankful for all of you that have supported Partners in Progress by donating, serving on our board, attending our events and encouraging us as make a difference for the young people in Sevier County.
Partners in Progress would like to say thank you to Shades of the Past Hot Rod Roundup for choosing us as one of the non-profits to receive a donation from their recent event. The event is held at Dollywood Splash Country each year the first weekend in August. This event has approximately 2300 registered participants, consisting of antiques, classics, custom muscle cars and hot rods. Over 10,000 spectators attend the event to look at the cars and buy parts in the vendor area. Many cars entered have won top awards at major automotive shows throughout the country. Shades of the Past is the home for the Street Rodder Magazine Triple Crown Award presentation in which one car is chosen as the "best in the country" categories of Best Street Rod, Best Street Machine, and Best Street Cruiser. We are grateful that they chose to recognize our organization among many that receive donations from proceeds received at this event.
I had the privilege of speaking to Ms Samantha Satterfield's SCHS class when they visited the ETSU campus this morning. I shared information about Partners in Progress and the guidelines required for dual enrollment classes while they are still in high school. We also talked about the opportunity to attend Walters State Community College with the assistance of Tennessee Promise and then complete their 4-year degree at East Tennessee State University here in Sevierville with Partners in Progress scholarships.

We deeply appreciate the Blalock family for listing Partners in Progress as one of the organizations to receive donations in Sid’s memory.

Merry Christmas to all our students, our donors and our colleagues that help make Partners in Progress possible.
Sevier County Partners in Progress Education Foundation lost one of our board members last week with the passing of Mayor Bryan Atchley. Our thoughts & prayers go out to Bryan's Ann Marie and Bryan, Jr., his family, friends and colleagues. He was a special man and will be deeply missed. To honor Bryan, our Board members are donating funds to establish the Bryan C. Atchley Scholarship. We felt that this was appropriate way for us to remember him and honor his commitment to this Board and our mission.
Good luck to all of our students that are taking finals this week. Study hard - then take a break and enjoy the holidays!
A huge thank you to everyone that signed up to be a mentor for tnAchieves. I received a phone call Friday afternoon telling me we had met the goal for Sevier County. I was so excited. If you are new to the mentoring program, welcome! If you are a returning mentor, thank you for continuing to support our students.
Please consider serving as a mentor in Sevier County and help provide a student with support in their college going process. Being a mentor takes less than 1 hour/month reminding students of important deadlines and serving as a resource. The deadline to sign up is November 30th - just 2 weeks away. We still need 42 mentors to meet the goal for Sevier County. You can apply by going to www.tnachieves.org/mentors/apply.
TnAchieves is two weeks away from the 2019 mentor recruitment deadline and 42 more mentors are needed to to meet the goal of 143 mentors for Sevier County.
To grow awareness, tnAchieves is hosting a Twitter Chat tonight at 6PM CT/7PM ET focused on the tnAchieves mentor program and its impact on students and communities! To participate, follow on Twitter and use the hashtag #tnpromisementor!
Please share this information. We need to make sure Sevier County meets their goal. Thank you.
We are making progress. Sevier County still needs 44 mentors to reach our goal. Please consider doing this? It could really make a difference in the life of a young person and it doesn't take a lot of time.
Go to tnachieves.org/mentors/requirements to complete your application. You will be glad that you did.
We still need 54 mentors in Sevier County. Won't you please consider doing this? It could really make a difference in the life of a young person.
Please consider being a mentor to a few of our Sevier County students. We still need 60 mentors.Our 2019 mentor recruitment map has been updated! This makes it easy to see where your county stands!
Our online dashboard is also updated as of today: buff.ly/2SuzFdM
I was privileged to share with the 2018 Leadership Sevier class at ETSU Sevierville. Thank you to Emma Walker for sharing with the group what the scholarship means to her. Emma attended Seymour High School, took dual enrollment classes, attended Walters State and is now a senior at our Sevierville ETSU campus studying radiography. It is reported that the average college loan debt at graduation for 2017 students was $29,900. Emma will have no debt because she received a Partners in Progress Scholarship.
tnAchieves, the partnering organization to Governor Haslam’s TN Promise in 83 counties, is looking for 9,0000 volunteers to serve as mentors. Sevier County needs 143 mentors. Sixty-nine have committed to serving as a mentor. We still need 74. Mentors spend about one hour per month working with a group of students to help eliminate the barriers associated with the transition from high school to college. Mentors remind students of important deadlines, serve as a trusted college resource and, most importantly, encourage students to reach their full potential. The time commitment is small, only about one hour per month, but the impact on the students can be life changing. To learn more and apply you can visit www.tnachieves.org/mentors/apply.
Please consider serving as a tnAchieves mentor in Sevier County!
