This week,Kelly Blair, RJH Principal, would like to share information regarding the Lunch and Learn program her students will benefit from during the upcoming weeks:
It’s never too early for students to start planning for high school, college and career options.
At Rockdale Junior High, we are launching a new program in partnership with Perry and Perry construction that will provide students with valuable life skills for their future.
Beginning this week, students will participate in a ‘Lunch and Learn’ session where they will be introduced to a variety of trade skills. Sessions will continue throughout the year during ‘Lunch and Learn’, with some trade skills being offered after school through our iTigers program.
Students will be introduced to basic welding skills, financial planning sessions, interview skills, construction and engineering, sewing, auto mechanics, along with a variety of volunteer service opportunities.
The timing of this program could not be better, as our eighth-grade students are in the midst of high school course selections, a tour of Temple College, and CTE rounds to explore programs of study at Rockdale High School.
Students interested in participating in the ‘Lunch and Learn’ and iTigers partnership, can sign up in the RJH front offi ce.
The first session was held on Wednesday, Feb. 13, from 11:45-12:45.
All seventh and eighth-grade students are encouraged to participate.
