Tonight’s NextUp for Families webinar is entitled “Is My Student On Track With Transition?” Family members of NextUp students can watch & listen live at 7pm (Central) at NextUp.work
Next week's NextUp lesson is on college and post-secondary education options. If it feels too early for you seniors to be thinking about next year, it's not! We explain why in the video. (Hint: FAFSA is just around the corner)
For a lot of schools, football season starts this weekend. There are lots of opportunities to volunteer this time of year. You could be a team manager, ticket taker, concession worker, or you could help clean up after the game. Show your school pride & get some work experience!
In NextUp Lesson 1, you learned about the different types of work experience you can have while you're in high school. This school year, do you plan to work in an employer-paid position, a training opportunity, or do you plan to volunteer?
Do you think it's a good idea for a parent to pick up your job application? Picking up and turning in the job application is a great opportunity to make a personal connection with the hiring manager and sell your skills and experience in person, before the interview.
This morning, we are at the Day of Transition in Galesburg, IL. Corey will be presenting and sharing with students how to be successful in a job interview.

The biggest mistake you can make with the FAFSA form is not completing it at all. 😬 Are you ready for October 1st?
