On September, 29 the Eli Whitney School Counseling and Admissions Department along with the Culinary Department hosted its Annual Counselor’s Breakfast for Counselors and Administrators from all of our sending elementary school districts.  The event was a great success!  We planned for 35 people to attend and every seat was filled, by sixteen local School Counselors, one Principal, the loyal Administrative Team, Special Education Department, Social Worker, School Psychologist, Dean of Students, and the entire Eli Whitney School Counseling Department.

The main purpose of the breakfast is to enhance recruitment at Eli Whitney This is done by informing Elementary & Middle School counseling personal about Eli Whitney Technical High School and the benefits of a Technical High School Education.
 

The breakfast which is held every year is a great opportunity for our Culinary Department to “show off” their exquisite food. In addition, invited counselors learn all the relevant information they will need in order to inform students interesteed in attending Eli Whitney. Every counselor in attendance stated they were impressed by the presentation, the students, and the programs offered at Eli Whitney.

Mrs. McEntire, our new School Counseling Coordinator, did a great job highlighting the school's recent CAPT Scores, student success stories, and announcing our community partnerships with Gateway Community College, College Career Pathways, Developing Tomorrow’s Professionals, and Higher Heights Youth Empowerment Programs, Inc.
