Dalon

Youth of Promise

Former Youth of Promise mentee Dalon Poole accepted an award from the First Lady on November 17th, 2015, on behalf of the Art High program of the Armory Center for the Arts, along with the Armory’s executive director Scott Ward.

Dalon became one of our first YOP mentees when he was a 6th grader at Washington Middle School. The mentoring he received through Flintridge and our partners at the La Pintoresca Teen Education Center helped him improve his grades and attitude in school. Dalon is now a professional photographer and award-winning artist.
