New Visions for Public Schools
Humanities II
THE OPPORTUNITY.
The New Visions HUM II Team desired to prepare their students for today’s world of work. We provided introductory career development workshops which taught students to identify their strengths, emerging talents, and learn how to apply for jobs.

We understand it can be challenging for high school students to step into the workforce with little to no job experience, as well as feel confident when doing so.
