Yesterday, we had the pleasure of hearing about the Kennett Future Ready program that just piloted at Kennett High School this year. The program gives students opportunities to connect with real-world learning through internships, capstone projects, attainment of industry-recognized credentials, leadership development and mentorship with local businesses and community partners. They’re looking to expand what they can offer their students so if you want to mentor or have an internship opportunity available at your business for a high school student, contact Kennett High School to learn more.
