Let’s look ahead into the summer. You’re out of school, now what? Are you planning to work? This is the time when recreation departments in cities and towns are posting summer jobs at the pool or their parks. Are you planning to work at a coffee shop, grocery store or retail store?
Right now is when you should start to look into job openings, the application and interview process. Do you want to volunteer? Again, look into what organizations in your community are looking for summer help. Are you going to summer camp or education camp or athletic camp or bible camp during the summer? What do you want to get out of it?
If you’re not planning on working or volunteering, then let’s talk about next fall. Depending on your grade level in high school, what are some things you can do during the summer to prepare academically for your next level in education? Maybe have a summer reading list or study for the ACT/SAT or make a list of what colleges you’d like to visit. Academic year 2020-2021 will be over soon and summer will come soon after, let’s start planning now.
