Cheers to a successful summer! #iammbsyep #districtoflearning #syep2015

We are nearing the end of the DC DOES @mbsyep. This Friday, our #MBSYEP2015 interns will be showcasing the mobile and web #apps they developed as well as give persuasive speeches, demonstrate mastery of culinary skills, and showcase their visual and literary art creations. Afterwards, we will close out with @DaOriginalz who will facilitate a workshop that enables interns to produce and act out skits that show the importance of decision making, and how daily decisions affect the outcome of various situations in life through dance. @hopedealing can't think of a better way to become #WorkReady. #DCProud #RealWorldInterns #21stcenturyskills #districtoflearning (at Martha's Table)

@llcoolchef gives an emotional speech about #MTsmartART youth and the healthy alternative to #CarryOut they created today, Vegetable Lo Mein. He's so proud of their growth and the #21stCenturySkills they've gained as a part of his culinary workshop. #DCProud #IBeInTheKitchen #MBSYEP2015 #DistrictOfLearning #WorkReady (at Martha's Table)

Who said you can't learn during the summer? Who knew the interns had learned so much. #workreadiness #MBYLI #IAMSYEP #districtoflearning
