Last week, we had the pleasure of hosting Katie Krais, Partnership Director at Dukes Plus, for an insightful session focused on the “Cradle to Career” journey.

 

Our school’s career team works closely with Dukes Plus to ensure our students have access to the very best guidance and educational experiences. The meeting was a fantastic opportunity to deep-dive into the specialized support available to our community.
