Although these are the range of topics that will be discussed and focused on, each session will
Families
be tailored to your student so that they can gain the most knowledge and practicality out of
our sessions as possible. Our goal is to help them either find employment opportunities or
help put them on that path by the end of the school year.
If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us or your student’s
counselor. We look forward to working with your student and helping them prepare to enter
the workforce.
Sincerely,

Rather than meet individually, the intern could have met with
students in pairs. This could have helped with accountability and
motivation purposes.
Possible Systemic Change
The goal of this data project is to put into effect a permanent model to assist
students going into the workforce. This project is intended to help students
prepare for the workforce and have the tools and skills necessary to enter it
without a college degree and to ensure that all students at Conard High
School have a plan upon graduation. Ultimately, the incoming school
counseling interns would be tasked to run this eight-week model for the
unforeseeable future under the guidance of the director of school counseling.
