Miscellaneous
HS Students - Summer employment is often a young adult’s first exposure to work. This is where they learn new skills such as appropriate communication in the workplace, customer service and professionalism. Short-term employment opportunities can help a young adult explore their likes, dislikes and the reality of a job to assist them in planning their future.  Check out https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BxqWDgwTHOqeMFNYcTlWRkhEU0k/view?usp=sharing
