Hello students!

Thank you for your participation in MCC Community Connection's Speaker Series. I'm very pleased with the turnout and with the interest you have in the presentations. It's also great to see that you are actively a part of the discussions and to hear your questions for the presenters or for me. Between the St Clair College and St Michael's Adult Secondary School sessions, I hope that you have a better idea on how you can plan your next steps in getting your high school diploma, taking courses in college or university, or finding employment.

We will discuss the information from Patrick Petro (Pat) in class this week. I'll try to answer more of your questions if you have any.

In the meantime, here are some links that I'd like you to look into. Please read the information in the websites! These are for both AM and PM students. Please continue to check your inboxes for worksheets related to these links.
