BUSINESS QUOTE OF THE MONTH:

“It always seems impossible until it’s done”

– Nelson Mandela

2018 Hire Me First Program Kick-Off

The 2018 Leadership Tracy class learned about public education at the Tracy Unified School District!

The Tracy Cham-ber of Commerce’s Hire Me First Pro-gram held their Kick-off Breakfast on October 18th. This Kick-off event celebrated the beginning of a new school year for the

program, which works with High School Juniors and Seniors to give them the skills that they need to enter the workforce. To prepare students the pro-gram offers job readiness training, internship/job shadowing opportunities, and mock interviews.

On this same day thirty nine students from across Tracy Unified School District par-ticipated in one day job shad-ows with employers in a field of their choosing. These job shadows provide students an opportunity to spend the day with a local business repre-sentative exploring the world of work. They also expose students to job opportunities within our city, allow students to participate in career exploration, and help to develop students soft transferable skills.

The Hire Me First Program

would like to thank the

following businesses and

organizations for allowing

students to job shadow

with them on this day!

Kids Place 2 Explore and

Learn , New Smile Ortho-

dontics , VCA Old River,
