Welcome to the Spring Term!!!
FEBRUARY IS CAREER EXPLORATION MONTH
FHS and Veritas students got a jump start on Career Exploration Month by meeting with Ms. Haynes, a career counselor from the Queens Public Library. She shared her personal journey, as she went from a stay at home mom to a career counselor with the Queens Public Library. If you want help writing a resume, preparing for an interview, or just looking for a job, visit the Job Readiness Center in the Queens Public Library. Thank you to Mr. M. Clark, of the MyLibraryNYC program who organized it for us. Thank you to teachers Ms. Landow and Ms. Eterno.
