The best! A wonderful advocate for our amazing students.
This month's Difference Maker: Ellen Sirico
At some point in every student’s life, they will have the “what’s next?” question. Each youth gets to decide their decision with this extremely open-ended question. One student may be ready to map out college applications, another student has no idea what comes after graduation, and another kid is excited about welding school, a summer job, or a two-year apprenticeship. For this reason, Ellen Sirico (Ms. Ellen) gets to offer opportunities and support to youth taking their next big steps. These seniors have a variety of plans and awareness, and it’s up to Ellen and the postsecondary learning and career readiness team to offer as much as possible.
