This week at LUMIN Schools has been nothing short of inspiring! I want to extend a huge thank you to all of our Principals, teachers, and parents who have supported the dreams of our scholars. Throughout the week, our schools have hosted exciting activities such as Scholar-Owned Businesses, Dress to Impress Your Employer, Career Talks, and Career Scavenger Hunts, giving our students real-world exposure and opportunities to dream big!
A special shout out to a few phenomenal leaders, both locally and nationally, for delivering impactful Career Talks that touched the lives of nearly 1,500 youth within our network:
- Milwaukee, County Executive, David Crowley
- PEARLS, Executive Director Tiffany Tardy, EdD
- Consultant, Denisha Tate-McAlister, MBA
- Procurement Consultant, Veronica C.
- Attorney, Jada Davis
Your inspiring "Lemon to Lemonade" journeys have shown our scholars what's possible with perseverance and passion. Thank you for sharing your stories with us!
Also, a big thank you to the LUMIN Network Team for your engaging and motivating Show N Tell sessions, where network leaders shared their career paths and words of wisdom with scholars. Together, we are illuminating the brilliant futures our children can achieve.
This week has been a powerful reminder of the importance of community and belief in our youth. Thank you all for being part of this amazing journey. #CareerExploration #FutureLeaders #LemonToLemonade #InspireTheNextGeneration #LUMIN

5 个月Thank you Laketta Caldwell and LUMIN Schools for allowing me to participate in this year's career week. I remember what is was like to be exposed to something and feeling like- I CAN DO THAT! I want our children to have choices! The more exposure, the longer their list of possibilities! Kudos to everyone involved. It's about impact in 2024 and beyond. #LIVELOVE
