On March 14th, five of Tomah’s Youth Apprenticeship students went to Madison to advocate to legislators for continued funding and support in DWD’s Youth Apprenticeship program. Our students were able to talk to various representatives for the area which included Nancy Vandermeer. Youth Apprenticeship (YA) gives high school juniors and seniors an opportunity to explore their chosen career path, and helps employers develop a qualified and committed workforce. Our students at Tomah are active in YA in the following pathways: Hospitality, Manufacturing, Finance, Agriculture, Marketing, Information Technology, Engineering, Automotive, Construction, and Health Science. Tomah has a very successful YA program and is looking to expand. If your future 11-12th grader is interested in participating in a YA next year, please email Dawn Pierce at dawnpierce@tomah.education.
