As always, there will be a group exercises to get you warmed up for the walk and the day – so don’t be late! The walk will start promptly at 9:00AM.

Sessions

Sessions for participants will begin at 10:15am. There will be separate sessions for younger students and adults. Topics for students will range from college prep, job interview skills, financial literacy, and reading skills/literacy.

Adult sessions are designed for parents, college students, and adults on a variety of topics in education. Individuals will participate in a discussion about education and will hear comments from a distinguished panel including leaders from academic, corporate, and civic organizations.

We ask that teachers and parents accompanying students attend the adult sessions to allow younger students time to learn in the small group coaching sessions.
