RE: ScholarsPH Blog #9: A New Fundition Project for Mark and Carlo
I wonder if we tried to check what's happening with Elden with his repeated absences? Just curious that he is committing such infraction in spite of his supposedly scholarship grant.
Anyway, congratulations and good luck to Mark! Welcome sa grupong iskolar ng Steemit. 😊
Hi @macoolette. Thank you very much for the concern 😊
Elden is a good and hardworking kid but he often misses school because of his part-time work. He was given a chance and @chinitacharmer has explained that he needs to change and commit to his studies to get the support. But his performance did not improve; maybe he chose his job because it had a more immediate impact.
Ultimately, he misses school NOT for an entirely bad reason. I should have mentioned it in the post 😅 His choices just doesn't match with @scholarsph goals. But if he will demonstrate renewed determination to study, he'll be our next candidate.
I see. I guess his reason is understandable assuming his work priority is because of deeper needs. Thanks for the clarification. :)
