Counselor News – December 2021
The School Counseling Department is working on recruiting for our second semester senior workforce opportunities and realize the importance of parent nominations/input to ensure no student falls through the cracks who may be great!
You may already be familiar with the Worthington Industries program. We have expanded our partnerships, and the programs we are looking to match students with include:
Worthington Industries-manufacturing steel/cylinders
RT Moore-commercial plumbing/HVAC
EcoPlumbers-repair and installation plumbing
Rosati Windows-installation/contracting
We are focusing on seniors but will take names of juniors. The opportunities we are working on are skilled trades with lots of opportunities for future advancement and even college tuition to be paid for if the student decides later to attend college.
If you know of a student who might be interested in one of these programs please contact the school counseling office.
