Review for YouthWorks, a Program of Goodwill of Southwestern PA, Pittsburgh, PA, USA
North Hills High School was very glad to participate in the 2008 Job Shadowing Week. We believe that the program offered many beneficial experiences to our students. Most of our students indicated that they had both educational and enjoyable experiences. We do wish that some of the job shadowing sites might provide Youthworks! with more accurate information about the actual activities the students would be engaged in and the actual personnel which would be present. There were several disappointing situations where the advertised public official was not even in town and another where our students stuffed envelopes all day. Thank you again for organizing the Job Shadowing Week effort. We look forward to participating in the coming year.
