Aaron’s mother always wanted to go to college but she couldn’t go. She was a single mother raising six children. Aaron is the oldest sibling and is expected to balance the demands of being a primary care-giver with school. He works hard at school and appreciates the time his teachers and counselors provide him. “I want to be successful in my life and become an educated black man. I want my younger brothers to look up to me rather than think that the streets are where they want to be.” Recently accepted to St. Mary's College, Aaron is eager to begin his college career this fall and make his mother proud.
