Welcome!

You've come to the right place for up to date information about internship, volunteer and job opportunities, as well as college application and scholarship deadlines, field trips, and events happening on campus. You'll also find posts on how to be as successful as possible when planning for your future!

At the bottom of this page you will find a google calendar with information about events, application deadlines, and program information. I find it easiest to navigate the calendar in "agenda" view, which you can switch it to by clicking the "agenda" tab in the upper right hand corner of the calendar.

In addition to the blog, we frequently send out emails with information that is then posted on the blog. Whether your a student, parents, or community member please feel free to join the list serve! You can do this by emailing me the message "add to list serve": macdanme@hsd401.org.

If you have any questions or need any support please stop into the LTI Office or College and Career Center, send an email, or call.

A really great way to gain experience and build your resume is to volunteer.  Through volunteer work you are often able to get a higher level of experience than you would have otherwise, which will benifit you in the long run.
Reasons why YOU should volunteer!

1# Free Food
Sometimes you get hungry.


2# Meet New People
Make friends-get a different view of things.


3# Help People Around You
Feel like you did something to help your community.


4# It's Fun Once You Get Used To It
It's healthy to have fun.


5# You Get to Go Outside and See The City.
It's good to have an adventure.


6# Personal Growth 
It's always good to learn more about yourself. 


7# You Make the World a Better Place
That's good cause we have to live in it.


8# Gain Job Experience
You have to get a job eventually, your parents will kick you out.


9# Gain Entrance into College
You need a good education to get a quality job these days.


10# Something to Keep You Busy
In case you get bored.
