College and Career Newsletter

Liberty Public Schools, serving 12,793 students this year!
We need you!
We have Shadow Search Day where 7th graders begin to see all the career options available to them. We have Future Finance where juniors in high school learn about living on their own as a 26 year old and why their choices now are important to their success later.
We have panels of experts where high school students get to ask practical questions of the experts (you) who know what it's like to work in your field.
Each listing in this issue is a way to be involved. There are many options. We welcome you to our schools!
Shadow Search Day
Future Finance
Future Finance is a financial Literacy simulation program for high school students. They learn what it costs to maintain a household, family, and children, and why it's important to do well in school, choose a career, and plan wisely.
