We did it! Another school year is over, and our students have met countless milestones over the course of the year. We celebrated hundreds of passed credentials, CTSO winners, job offers, pay raises, college acceptances, enlistments, small successes and great wins since last August. For many of our students, their "summer job" looks a little different than most high school students. Our cosmetology students are completing internship hours and many of our students are working in their chosen industry. A few students are even starting to work in a placement job where they will be working full-time in the fall instead of coming to lab next year. Not only have our students learned a great deal, but many of them have also grown up tremendously. This week our juniors started to show they are ready to lead our new students next fall, and I can’t wait to see what they accomplish next year.
Next fall, Great Oaks will be implementing the policy to comply with SB29 and student cell phones will not be allowed during the school day. We appreciate your support with that enforcement at home. We will be communicating more about that later, but I wanted to give you all the "heads up".
We look forward to our current students returning on August 19th. We will welcome our new juniors on August 18th.
I could not be prouder of our students!
