My Project
My project aims to support high school students as they transition into the workforce by providing them with essential supplies that enhance their readiness for employment. The items I am requesting, such as resume-building kits, and interview preparation materials, will make a significant difference in their learning by equipping them with the tools they need to present themselves confidently and professionally. These resources will help students develop crucial soft skills, improve their job search strategies, and ultimately secure meaningful employment.
The goal of this project is to ensure that every student is fully prepared to enter the workforce with the skills and confidence necessary to succeed.
By providing these supplies, I hope to bridge the gap between education and employment, giving my students a competitive edge as they begin their careers. Some of the items that I am requesting to help them become successful post high school include: Abilitations Life Skills Fine Motor Hardware Faucet Assembly Kit, Therapro I Can Work! A Work Skills Curriculum, Complete Program - Grades 4-12 - Adult, PCI Educational Publishing Pro-Ed PCI Life Skills for Today's World Game - Career Exploration, 3+ Years - Middle-High School - Adult, pre-voc work station, employment applications, Road Map to Your Job, and the Life Skills Advocacy Workbook.
What makes my students special is their resilience and determination. Many of them face challenges that could hinder their success, but they are committed to overcoming these obstacles and achieving their goals. This project will empower them to take the next step in their lives with confidence and pride.
