New Year, New Themes for GO’s College Early & Often series!
On Tuesday, September 17th, GO will launch into our third year of College Early and Often programming with our Family Values introductory session. In this theme, we invite students of all ages (K-12th grade) and their families to join us for an evening of creativity as they explore family values, learn about their child’s interests and hobbies, and name hopes for their student’s college and career journey. As a family, they will create a crest unique to them.
Family Values, ALL AGES, K-12th grade: Tuesday, September 17th, 5 pm-7 pm
We hope you will join us on this journey!
Our College Early and Often series will continue in October as we unveil our first new theme of the 2024/2025 school year- Exploration of STEM Careers! In this theme, we will shine a spotlight on the many amazing career tracks in the areas of Science, Technology, Engineering, Math, Architecture and Design, and Manufacturing. Families will engage in some brainstorming and thinking together, and then have the opportunity to interact and ask questions to expert community partners in these fields. It is our hope that families walk away with newfound knowledge about this potential pathway and helpful resources as they navigate their student’s future.
NEW Theme: Exploration of STEM Careers
Grades K-3rd: Tuesday, October 8th, 5 pm-7 pm
Grades 4th-6th: Tuesday, October 22th, 5 pm-7 pm
