Perry County Youth Worker Café Youth Panel: Senior Perspectives on Postsecondary Pathways Intensive Local TrainingAbout this in-person event: TOPIC: The class of 2022 is the first to have dealt with the COVID-19 pandemic during the majority of their high school years. This has shifted our globe in how we approach education and our careers. This panel will allow seniors who’ve been dealing with it all in real-time to share their perspectives on making plans for the future across a few different pathways (enrollment, enlistment, and employment). The facilitator will also provide insight on current school and community discussions to better prepare students for this new normal. Participants will: 1) Gain a deeper understanding of how seniors are approaching postsecondary plans; 2) Identify how the pandemic has affected or altered career interests and pathways; 3) Reflect on how the community can best support students in their career exploration and postsecondary plans SPEAKERS: Youth Panel: Seniors from Tell City High School FACILITATOR: Brittany Collins, Program Officer, College and Career Initiative, Indiana Youth Institute ORGANIZER: Lisa Noble, Director of School Counseling, Tell City Jr-Sr High School ***No Cost - Lunch Provided**** LOCATION: Tell City Jr/Sr High School - Library 900 12th St Tell City, IN 47586 ADDITIONAL INFO: You are invited to bring business cards or program/service information to share as well as arrive early and stay after for networking.
