Doug Hershey, Educator and Director of Proud Partners, was our speaker last week.   Proud Partners is a program designed to foster student success through the School to Work Study Program and Career & Technical Education Programs.  Doug also told us about the Teacher Want Ads.  This is a posting of ongoing needs where the teachers post what they need to support their students or classrooms. http://www.mypagosaschools.com and scroll down to the Volunteer Sign-up. Here is a great way to find a way to help the students!  Also, there will be more opportunities with the Community and Students Job Fair in the spring.
