Job Shadowing at Wallenpaupack Area High School
As part of a job shadowing experience, Senior Nina Breuer spoke to Crisis Counselor John Tobey about pursuing a guidance career so that she could give back to others.
Wallenpaupack's Job Shadowing program enables high school students to develop realistic views about careers and the educational requirements, necessary skills, and practical experiences they will need to succeed. Shadowing experiences help the students to understand how their classroom work will provide the foundation for their careers. Often, the shadowing opportunities permit students to explore career interests and learn about pathways (including post-secondary options) so that they may achieve their goals. Job shadowing also enables students to create positive contacts who may further assist the students.
