Yes, summer is racing to its conclusion, and our Summer Earn and Learn students are finishing up their jobs this Friday. For many, it’s their first paid employment experience, and it’s been a great success!

Through the Summer Earn and Learn program, students have worked in various positions, gaining valuable work experience and building confidence. The program not only provides employment opportunities but also emphasizes the development of essential skills such as time management, communication, and teamwork.

As the program wraps up, students reflect on their experiences and the growth they've achieved. The skills and lessons learned during this summer will undoubtedly serve them well in their future endeavors.

We congratulate all the participants for their hard work and dedication. Here's to the next step in your journey!
