Job Training at Kmart

 We are excited to be acquiring retail work skills in our job preparation class at Kmart. So far we have been learning about:

• organizing clothes by size
• folding T-shirts
• go-backs (returning merchandise back to store shelves)

Sarah says she likes folding the jeans and T-shirts. "It is my favorite place to go!"


Joey likes working at Kmart because "it's fun to sort clothes".

Helping Hands.

Every week, a group of Life Skills students volunteer at the Monument Crisis Center in Concord. The students measure and sort food for MCC to distribute. The Monument Crisis Center had a thank you breakfast for their volunteers last week that a few of the students attended. 

Nicole: "At MCC, we pack bags of oatmeal and rice. I like volunteering at MCC because I like to help people have food." 

Jenny: "We had yogurt, pastries, and coffee at the Thank You breakfast.
They gave us a chocolate bar and a thank you note." 

Volunteering Job

In our Job Prep class, we counted Easter Eggs for the Danville Easter Egg Hunt and put stickers inside the eggs. We put together thousands of eggs! 

"I really enjoyed making the eggs for Danville." -Briana
