I work for a non profit called Communities In Schools of Los Angeles as a Graduation Coach at Emerson Middle School. In honor of college month, we
are having several college themed activities on campus.
We would like to request 30-40 volunteers to come speak to students (preferably during homeroom 8:00 am – 8:35 am) about their college experience on Tuesday October 30, 2012.
examples of possible topics: * Major, why they chose that major * Did they go to a community college first * Why they chose to go to college* why
they chose the college they attend * what is the hardest part about college * What students should be doing in middle school & high school to prepare for college * things they could have done differently when they were in middle school & high school * living on campus vs off campus * what to expect once they get to college * financial aid * How is college
different from high school.
Emerson middle school is located at 1650 Selby Avenue, Los Angeles, CA
90024. We are located approximately 1.5 miles from UCLA
