This month we are highlighting Social Worker Services!
Students will learn how their interests and talents can guide them towards a desirable career. Students will be introduced to the working world that they will one day enter, will increase their knowledge about career options, take assessments to see how they will fit in the working world, and be encouraged to plan for the future in order to reach their desired goals. Students will develop career awareness and will acquire career information.
Students will receive lessons and resources throughout the year developed to create career awareness and to acquire various career information! Exploring career topics will give our students broader exposure to the working world they will one day enter. It will help them “connect the dots” between school and career in ways that keep them motivated to graduate with the skills they will need for the future
