The new school year is just around the corner, and we can't wait!🎒📚

We welcomed our team back from summer break with a two-day staff retreat at our By Degrees HQ. The entire team came together to prepare for the upcoming year, ensuring that our programming effectively supports students in graduating from high school with a solid plan and the necessary tools for success.
