Transition Services Series for Students
VALUE OF PARTNERSHIP
“The Old Navy and Woodlawn
HS partnership has been a
wonderful way for the students
at Woodlawn to benefit from
Joan Green’s expertise, General
Manager at Old Navy. It has
proven to be a win-win situation
for both. Old Navy benefits from
our students working at Old
Navy and our students are
learning valuable work skills.
We look forward to expanding
the partnership this school
year“.

SKILLS + INTERESTS + VALUES = CAREER SUCCESS
There are three components to a successful career:
Skills: Those things you are good at doing.
Interests: Those things that are of interest, fun,
and/or are exciting to you.
Values: Those things that are important to you,
i.e. people, things, ideas.
