Senior Workshop on May 20th, “Making College Lead to a Career”

On May 20, Seniors will be dismissed from class to attend a workshop on “Making College Lead to a Career,” led by certified college and career coach (former MLWGS teacher and current parent), Jennifer McCluskey.  Her presentation will touch on several topics including but not limited to: networking, internships vs. externships, and writing a resume.  This was met with great success last year when we held it over Zoom, but we are excited to have her on campus for an in-person event!  If you would like to learn more about Mrs. McCluskey or the help she offers to students, please consider checking out her website:  https://www.jennifermccluskey.com/.  If you have any questions about the event, contact Ms. Sheppard (lass of 2022 sponsor): [email protected].
