Let Us Set the Stage…
It seems like not so long ago, you were stepping into your kindergarten
classroom. You were nervous: Nervous to meet new people, excited to carry
your new Hannah Montana or Batman backpack into school and completely
clueless about what was about to come next….
Fast forward 12 years. High school will be ending and you will be nervous:
Nervous to meet new people, excited to carry the new suitcase or laptop bag
you got as a graduation gift and completely clueless about what comes
next…
Sound familiar?
Some of you have a plan. Others of you are unsure of where to begin.
Let Shape the Sky help….
We will go through the process of how to be ready for life after high
school. You will leave prepared to be an active part of your future
planning that will take the uncertainty and stress out of the postsecondary planning process.
