The entire retreat was eye-opening and I feel that I have learned a lot. Thank you for giving me and the rest of the students a great opportunity to learn.

The entire retreat was eye-opening and I feel that I have learned a lot. Thank you for giving me and the rest of the students a great opportunity to learn. From a participating student Last week my daughter was a participant of the Every 15 Minutes program held at Coronado High School. I was familiar with the program and its objectives but until I experienced the program as a parent of a child involved, I had no idea of the impact. I did not believe I would be as emotionally affected as I was, as was my daughter. I believe the impression made on her will be long lasting. She now refuses to even start the engine of the car until everyone inside is buckled up. Last week my daughter was a participant of the Every 15 Minutes program held at Coronado High School.
