In and With Our Community
Women in Trade Luncheon
Lakewood High School 10th and 11th grade students from all pathways joined students from all over Long Beach in attending the Women In Trade Luncheon sponsored by the Port of Long Beach on October 29th. This event gives students an opportunity to practice their networking skills while meeting women in industry and learning from their experiences. There was a meet and greet portion as well as a panel that included amazing women of all backgrounds who are trailblazers in their industries. They were able to share their journeys and inspire this generation to always go for what they want. A big thank you to Amanda White (ATM) for joining us and to all the teachers that nominated these students and supported them in being able to take advantage of this amazing opportunity.
Guest Speakers for AP Capstone Students
Guest Speakers Vicky Stucky and Ari Pe spoke to AP Capstone students about the importance of Civic Engagement and volunteerism for the city of Lakewood. Students were able to ask how to get involved in service and giving back to the community in various ways.
That's a Wrap!
Things got spooky in Mrs. Weller’s Sports Medicine class as students teamed up for a lively mummy wrapping competition, proof that teamwork can be both fun and festive!
