Elgin High School Hosts Automotive, Electrical, Engineering, Healthcare, Large Equipment Maintenance, Manufacturing, and Welding Career Opportunities

May 1, 2023

On April 26, Elgin High School in partnership with Alignment invited business professionals to its campus to share with students high demand apprenticeship and job opportunities in automotive, electrical, engineering, healthcare, large equipment maintenance, manufacturing, and welding.

Violetta Losowski, counselor for Elgin High School, coordinated the event with teachers and students. “Students have the opportunity for real world information on several careers in technical fields. We welcome this incredible opportunity.” Violetta and the teachers worked together to identify students with interest in these careers and as a result of their efforts, over 250 students benefited from the event.

Alignment appreciates its business and post-secondary partners, who chose to spend their day motivating students about the future. Their advice helped the students know how to navigate their high school experience to best prepare for these professions.

Future Teachers Tour Judson University

May 1, 2023

Students from Bartlett, Larkin, and South Elgin high schools visited Judson’s School of Education to view the array of programs Judson offers in preparing the next decade of teachers. Thirty-two (32) students from the Education CTE programs participated in the day as part of Alignment’s efforts in partnership with U-46, District 300, and District 301 to regionally build a teacher pipeline. Nancy Coleman, Alignment’s executive director praised the volunteers leading this program. “We had the opportunity to visit NIU in the fall and Judson in the spring to showcase two institutions of higher learning making great contributions to address the teacher shortage.” Alignment is thankful to the Judson School of Education for investing these resources in students considering teaching as their future profession.
