November Employer Spotlight: Warren CUSD 205
Kayley joined the Customized Employment Program at The Workshop several months ago with an interest in working in a grocery store or a food-related business. After exploring employment in nearby towns, Kayley chose to visit Warren Schools, which is 4 blocks from her home and the school where she attended preschool. Tracie, Warren Schools Food Service Director, made it possible for Kayley to job shadow and gather information, so Kayley had a chance to see and understand job responsibilities and specific tasks. Kayley decided to apply and was officially hired in September!
This is Kayley’s first job ever, and she really likes it. She works every school day to prepare the a la carte menu, serve students, and assist with cleaning and dishes – a strong match for Kayley’s strengths, skills, and interests! Kayley is teaching her team and the students how to sign, not to mention learning and applying many new cooking and food prep skills. Tracie and Kayley’s teammates are going above and beyond to support Kayley by learning sign language and adding needed supports, so Kayley can be successful and happy at her new job. We are super proud of Kayley and greatly appreciate her welcoming the Warren Schools Cafeteria team!
