Education Mini-Forum #2
Saturday June 12th, 10:30 a.m.-Noon at Hayward City Hall, Room 2A, 777 B Street
Last month in Education Mini-Forum #1, our guest speaker was Dr. Marlena Uhrik of the California Department of Education. Dr. Uhrik listed three things children need in their lives that cost NO money:
- High standards
- A caring adult
- Meaningful participation
On June 12th, we will cover #2 of Dr. Uhrik’s list with the following panelists:
- A local high school counselor to represent a CURRENT hands-on perspective of her experiences dealing with youth on a daily basis
- A large company employer to represent a child’s FUTURE employment opportunities
- Mentor & mentee success stories to represent REAL examples of how powerful it is to have a caring adult in a child’s life
This event is FREE and the public is welcome!
