Thank you, businesses, for employing our students- please encourage them to also do their school work

…employers you can serve as bonus mentors, educational supporters, and encouragers in these students’ lives.

I want to thank our many businesses that employed our students before the COVID-19 crisis and thank those that have employed our students during this pandemic. Oftentimes these students have been on the frontlines, providing many essential services and have provided businesses with a much- needed workforce.

Remote/virtual learning has often given students and their employers’ additional opportunities to work times during what would have been the students’ school day.

Businesses, supervisors, managers, please encourage your student employees to promptly do their schoolwork to ensure they finish this semester successfully.  This is especially important for our Class of 2020 seniors. Teachers and schools are being flexible with students, but students are still in school and responsible for completing their work.  As their employers, you can serve as bonus mentors, educational supporters, and encouragers in these students’ lives.

We are so proud of our students and the hard work they are doing both at these businesses and especially in their studies.

Thank you, businesses, supervisors, and managers for all you are doing for our students, schools, and community.  As the African proverb goes, “It takes a village”, and in Citrus County we have the BEST village!
